Vehicle Description
This custom 1970 Chevrolet C10 stepside short-bed pickup has
undergone a full frame-off restoration, mixing classic body lines
with a modern drivetrain and up-to-date features in a Resto-Mod
style. The engine is powered by a fuel-injected 4.8-liter LS V8
engine backed by a 4L80 automatic transmission connected to a
12-bolt 3.73 ratio rear end. The engine is cooled by a Champion
aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, and the exhaust flows
through a 2.5-inch dual exhaust tip. The stance and ride come from
McGaughy's suspension system with 2.5-inch drop spindles, 2-inch
drop springs and a sway bar with power steering in the front. The
back rides on 5-inch drop springs and includes an adjustable
Panhard bar. Stopping power is provided by 4-wheel disc brakes with
hydro-boost assist and an adjustable proportion valve. This pickup
comes with a new front grille assembly and a new chrome front
bumper and is equipped with clear halogen headlights, custom LED
taillights and chrome door mirrors with all trim and emblems
shaved, including the cowl vents, firewall, bed step treads, marker
light, tailgate latches and stake pockets. It also features a
custom rear roll pan with a lower pan connecting the rear fenders
that were fabricated. The wooden bed floor is painted Bolero Red
and trimmed with stainless-steel strips. This custom pickup is
finished in PPG Bolero Red and rolls on 20-inch Vision Legend 6
aluminum wheels with 245/45/20 tires on all four corners. Open the
door to find a custom interior done in two-tone gray with red
stitching and diamond-pattern accents throughout. The interior also
features sound-deadening material under the gray carpet, bucket
seats, custom door panels, hand-stitched steering wheel and a
custom center console with sliding cover revealing stainless-steel
cup holders, USB outlets and a wireless phone charger. Rounding out
the interior is a touchscreen radio, backup camera, power windows,
power door locks, keyless entry, new GM-style tilt steering column,
air conditioning with new air compressor, cruise control, power
tailgate latches, LED lights and tinted glass.
