Vehicle Description
For our Classic Chevrolet Pickup enthusiasts, Zoom Classic Cars is
happy to offer this beautiful 1968 Chevrolet C-10 Big Block (396)
Short bed. For those who know how difficult it is to perfect a show
quality BLACK paint finish this one has it won hands down. This
truck has had significant body work to perfect all gaps, lines and
extensive panel blocking before applying its pristine (single
stage) show quality BLACK finish. This C-10 has that desirable "wet
look" with a gloss that clearly enhances its laser straight body
lines and perfected panel gaps. Body work also included a brand-new
tailgate & upgraded front and rear glass to Feslers gasket-less
style windows for an enhanced modern clean look, all body work was
completed in 2016. This truck is road ready with plenty of power
from its Big Block 396, new 700r4 transmission and rebuilt upgraded
31 spline posi-traction rear differential. Braking has also
received upgrade to include 4-wheel disc with power assist. The
truck has received several stages of overhaul since its current
owner acquired it in 2014, the 396 came with the purchase but
quickly received a new Edelbrock intake and carburetor, MSD
Ignition and aluminum radiator to ensure optimized cooling. At the
same time the new 700r4 transmission and upgraded rear end, shocks,
springs and braking components were installed while maintaining the
original factory suspension design - all completed 2014. 2015/2016
paint and interior upgrades were completed as well as LED lights.
For those familiar with these trucks and more importantly the
typical fuel Oder in the cab from the tank being mounted within the
cabin - this truck has been modified to re-locate the fuel tank to
the rear of the bed (outside undercarriage) thus eliminating this
issue, this is a very common and desirable modification for these
vehicles. Overall, the current owner enhancements were complete in
2016 and the truck has only been driven 500 miles since. This C-10
is ready for a new home, for those familiar this truck fits that
desirable spike in C-10 Short bed interest that has gained and
maintained a solid standing in the market. This vehicle can easily
be enjoyed as is or is an excellent candidate for those who wish to
perform alternate suspension upgrades such as air suspension if
they wish. Add up the paint work, mechanical, interior enhancements
and finish with 5 lug conversion with new aluminum American Racing
wheels you will be hard pressed to build a comparable truck for
anywhere close to this price. If you're a C-10 fan or just a
classic pickup enthusiast this one will definitely put a smile on
your face and gain you a thumbs up on the road. This vehicle is
located in Northern, NJ. Call Scott at: (201) 483-0388.
