Vehicle Description
Sometimes the right machine comes along that you know you love for
work AND play. This 1972 Chevrolet C10 has the function of a long
bed truck, the comfort of an A/C interior, and plenty of V8 growl.
Best of all, it's wrapped around a shimmering example of classic
two-tone.
Admit it, you're digging how this truck looks, aren't you? This
cool shade of Medium Olive isn't outrageously wild like those candy
purple or electric blue paint jobs other builders try to pull off.
Instead, the two-tone green and white has all the right premium
pickup looks from the era. But this factory-correct color combo has
also been recently reapplied for a little extra metallic flair. So
it fits in with the old-school truck scene, right down to the wood
paneling in the trim. And it also really pops in the sunlight and
catches the neon lights perfectly when you're out cruising on a
Saturday night. Plus, mirror-like bumpers and a tonneau cover
create one stylish machine. But as you've noticed, this is a long
bed pickup. That means it can carry the larger loads and do more
chores. So underneath the folding cover is a spray-in liner. Now
your weekends with this C10 can be spent at the hardware store AND
showing off at car shows.
Just like the exterior, the interior appears quite correct, but has
some subtle upgrades. For example, the shining exterior green
returns on the dash and tops of the doors. But now it's joined by a
black bench and door panels that both have the cool classic
Western-style pattern embossed in them that the premium Chevy
trucks received during this era. The classic Chevy dual-spoke
steering wheel feels good in your hands, and it gives you a clear
view to all the gauges. And as you look across the dash, you're
going to spot great feature you'll always want, like the upgraded
AM/FM/cassette stereo with digital tuner and factory air
conditioning that's blowing cold.
The period-correct with upgrades feeling continues under the hood.
This is a 350 cubic-inch block that decodes to the correct era. It
not only looks great with the bright block color, but there a bunch
of shiny upgrades, including the valve covers, alternator, air
topper, and inner fenders. And beyond just flair, the hoses, wires,
and belts all have the look of continuous proper maintenance. But
what you'll like best is that this V8 inhales deeply through a
four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority as the long
tube headers feed the rumbling dual exhaust. Out on the road, this
pickup has all the right features, like a three-speed automatic
transmission, power steering, front disc brakes, and the C10's
sought-after trailing arm rear suspension.
This is a really nice truck that doesn't cut any corners - you even
get the original owner's manual. It has the chiseled good looks of
a classic bow tie with plenty of muscle to back it up. If there's
one thing we have learned, people like quality, and this affordable
classic doesn't disappoint. Call today!!!
