Vehicle Description
There's an awful lot to love in this 1968 Chevrolet C10 pickup with
its great color combination, perfect stance, and serious big block
power. So if you've been searching for a do-it-all weekend warrior,
this truck should be your leading candidate.
The first thing you notice about this truck is the bright blue
paint. Modern clearcoat and a professional hand applying it gives
it the kind of shine usually reserved for chrome. Because of that,
only the best brightwork would do. That's why you can see a true
investment in mirror-like chrome bumpers, complete bright trim, and
of course, the 20-inch Ridler wheels that immediately capture your
eye. Those wheels combine with the lowered suspension to really
create aggressive stance - making sure that no one will mistake
this custom for anything straight from the factory. But this is
still a true truck, and so the bed has the kind of flat black paint
that will never make you think twice about using this classic Chevy
to help with the weekend chores.
The deep blue from the exterior returns in the interior on the door
panels and lower dash, and now its joined by a factory-style blue
bench to give you a cool vintage feeling. This merging of classic
and modern feelings continue as you look across the dash. The
original equipment is still in place, and it's now joined by
auxiliary readouts and a modern AM/FM/CD stereo with an aux input
for modern music players. You'll slip behind the upgraded
three-spoke steering wheel, and that gives you a clear view of the
original gauges, as well as the Sun Super Tach. And once you grab
the B&M shifter, you'll senses will tingle from performance
even before you twist the key and hear this pickup roar.
Pop the hood, and you'll realize you're staring down one monster
motor - a 454 cubic-inch big-block V8. It's upgraded with
components such as a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock
intake, and a Howe aluminum radiator with dual electric fans to
keep it all running cool. Headers and a throaty dual exhaust system
sound awesome with the tips right in front of the rear wheels. A
stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission shifts without
hesitation the moment your foot hits the carpet, and the modern
grip of Toyo tires really help the power meet the pavement. Plus,
these Chevys are sought after for their smooth-riding trailing arm
rear suspension. Combine this with power steering and front disc
brakes, and this street-eating truck is also a comfortable Sunday
driver.
This is one of those few well-built pickups that has the plenty of
motor to back up its aggressive appearance. You can choose to be
the intimidator at the car show, or just watch as traffic parts for
this beast during your morning commute. Don't miss out, call
