Vehicle Description
A 1968 Chevrolet C10 offered at this affordable price already seems
attractive. But when you realize this one has everything from the
utility of a long bed to the growling power of a big block V8, you
soon see one irresistible total package.
The look of Chevys C10 from this era is absolutely classic. It has
a bit of flair to coincide with the muscle car era, and the red
paint highlights that nicely. This is a later application, and it
has been enjoyed, so no one will accuse this red devil of being a
trailer queen (after all, it tows the trailers... it doesn't go on
them!) Plus, this has the right added appeal with the lowered
stance, modern sport mirrors, and bright Mickey Thompson wheels.
It's a long bed pickup, and so there's room for more chores and toy
in the real wood truck bed. In fact, that trailer hitch on the back
should have you thinking about even larger toys, too. And this one
has the motor to handle it all... but more on that in a moment.
The black wood of the bed makes for a nice introduction to the red
and black interior. It's easy to get comfortable with the classic
steering wheel that gives you a full view of the gauges - including
the handy tach in the center. This has the right cruising features
you want like an AM/FM/cassette radio for upgraded driving tunes,
and a sliding rear window gives you the perfect old-school truck
breeze. Plus, with the windows open, you get to hear this one growl
even louder.
Under the hood is serious big block power. After all, the Chevy's
396 cubic-inch V8 is a legend all on its own. And this one is fun
to show off with the flame-etched valve covers and satin black air
topper matching the inner fenders. But what you really want to know
is that this mighty motor inhales deeply through a four-barrel
carburetor. It exhales with authority as headers feed the Magnaflow
mufflers on their way to the side exhaust. This is fortified with
the right components like a stout 12-bolt rear end and Chevy's
strong TH400 three-speed transmission. But the automatic also
shifts smoothly. So it combines with the power steering, power
brakes, and the C10's sought-after trailing arm rear suspension to
deliver a comfortable driving experience.
Complete with owner's manual, this is the classic truck that offers
extra practicality and the joy of a big motor. And since it's
available at a gone-tomorrow price, you know you need to hurry up
and call today!
