Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet C10 Fleetside Pickup Truck is a beautifully
restored Chevy pickup with great options! Introduced in the fall of
1968, Chevrolet's light duty pickup trucks were lightly refreshed
from the 1968 models, which were massively redesigned from the '67
models. Up front, the 1969 Chevy Pickups sported an all new
barbell-style grille with an aluminum centerpiece that was embossed
with "Chevrolet." The rectangular parking lights were also modified
for the 1969 model year and were now integrated into the front end
next to the headlight housing. A new large "Bowtie" emblem was also
now featured prominently on the hood, further differentiating the
1969 Pickup from the previous iteration. The side silhouette of the
1969 Chevrolet trucks remained largely the same from the previous
year as well with only a few minor changes including the marker
lights being replaced with reflectors and the side mirrors were
also modified so that they were more adjustable and to correct for
side visibility problems that customers complained of in 1968. The
rear end treatment remained largely the same as the previous
version, still featuring a one-hand tailgate opener among other
items. The interiors also remained reminiscent of the previous
year's model with only minor improvements such as a new "low
profile" steering wheel and foot-operated parking brake. In total,
Chevrolet produced 268,233 short bed, long wheelbase Fleetside
models which amounted to the majority of all C10 production in
1969. While these trucks started to see a merger of utility and
comfort, many of them were "used up" as they were for most folks
just "work trucks" with few predicting how collectible they would
become 50 or 60 years later. So today to find a stock-looking, late
60s and early 70s pickup truck in great condition is a real treat
for collectors and enthusiasts alike! Under the hood on this 1/2
Ton Chevy Pickup is a replacement 350 Cubic Inch V8 engine fed by
an upgraded Edelbrock Single 4 Barrel Carburetor. The NOM 350 V8 is
backed by a TH350 Automatic Transmission which makes for an
easy-to-drive classic pickup. Exhaust exits this Chevrolet's 350
via a set of stock exhaust manifolds through a dual exhaust setup
that generates a wonderful throaty sound out the rear tailpipes.
This '69 C10 Fleetside Pickup comes outfitted with a number of
fantastic options! With power steering, maneuvering in and out of a
tight parking space at the local car show or drive-in is a total
breeze and the overall driving experience is much more enjoyable.
Stopping power is also much improved thanks to the addition of
front disc brakes and a dual master cylinder. Riding on a set of
raised letter radial tires mounted on Rally-style wheels and
accented with chrome beauty rings, this 1969 C10 Pickup has a great
look and even better ride. The steel Fleetside pickup box is in
great shape as well, as is the well-detailed wooden bed with chrome
hardware. The steel body of this '69 Chevrolet C10 has been
refinished in a beautiful two-tone paint scheme consisting of Pure
White over Omaha Orange that completes the exterior look of this
truck. The interior of this 1969 Chevrolet C10 1/2 Ton Fleetside
Pickup Truck is absolutely gorgeous! The bench seat has been
reupholstered in black vinyl. The padded dash, black upholstered
door panels with woodgrain accents, black armrests, rubber floor
mat, and steering wheel all appear to be in wonderful condition and
all retain a nice stock appearance. The instrument cluster is
equipped with a 100 MPH speedometer, battery gauge, temperature
gauge, oil pressure gauge, and fuel gauge. The dash is completed
with climate controls, a push-button AM radio, and glovebox.
