Vehicle Description
This 1966 Chevrolet C20 Custom is all about offering you extra -
extra power from the original V8, extra duty of the rarer 3/4-ton
truck, and extra stares from the quality restoration.
This pickup just seems to merge the worlds of vintage and modern
perfectly. For example, it started out life as a green truck, but
the metallic element you see radiating from it today tells you
there has been a recent investment in a quality modern application.
And a truck like this deserves the attention. Chevy did a terrific
job with design on these c/k pickups with a style line built right
into the sheetmetal - that curved indent starts at the taillight,
flows up the body, around the front, and back to the other
taillight. It's almost like this wears a lucky horseshoe. Plus, the
Custom designation made it as stylish as any car of the day with
plenty of great trim going down the side and around the cab doors.
And of course, not even luxury cars of the '60s came with real
wood, but you have a bed full of it here. The bumpers look nice as
they add a cool '60s style shine. Plus, the newer 8-lug Panther
wheels add to the brightwork while also reminding you of the extra
duty that comes with this rarer C20 truck.
Inside is more vintage charm with nice upgrades. The black bench
seat is plush and comfy, which makes it nice to slip behind the
newer three-spoke sports steering wheel. This gives you a clear
view of the factory gauge package still in the dash. In the center
is a retro-style radio that gives you the classic knob-style look,
but it offers the modern convenience of a digital tuner and iPod
hookup. And we bet your favorite interior upgrade is the Hurst
shifter, because it's your gateway to what's under the hood.
The V8 looks quite fresh, and that's because nearly $10k was spent
on rebuilding it in 2016. So the bold orange block, bright valve
covers, and matching air topper all look like they are radiating
power from within the engine bay. But the real secret here is while
people are admiring how it looks, you get to tell them it's the
original 283 cubic-inch block. So you get both the pride of
showmanship and the pride of originality. Plus, more than just
talking about this V8, you'll love that it was built to run. There
are go-fast goodies like a Holley four-barrel carburetor,
performance intake, and headers that add power while feeding the
rumbling H-pipe dual exhaust. Plus, you get superior control over
this V8 thanks to the stout T10 four-speed manual transmission.
This makes for a great driver's truck, which is exactly what it's
supposed to be. After all, this c/k series is also known for its
trailing arm rear suspension for a much better ride.
Complete with build receipts and the owner's manual, this is the
truck that is great to drive and has a story when you arrive. And
since it's available right now for quite a nice price, you know you
need to hurry to grab this deal. Call today!!!
