Excellent craftsmanship and inspired design converge to result in a
ride brimming with distinctive curb appeal while also offering an
outstanding experience from behind the wheel. This 1962 Chevrolet
C10 Restmod is just a flat out awesome truck. Only a little over
8,000 miles past a build that's put it in stellar form both inside
and out, it offers plenty of modern, dependable power to call upon,
as well as some great add-ons for exceptional drivability to match
its singular appearance.
This vintage Chevy stepside will seem comfortably familiar and
intriguingly novel at the same time. There are styling cues from
its original configuration still intact - an ultra clean front
grille and bumper being just a couple of them - but it takes a
closer inspection to really appreciate the planning and execution
that went into making this modded truck so special. Up front, an
aggressively shaped cowl scoop takes its place on a hood that
blends right into the curvature of doors with shaved handles, while
in the back, the fenders have been reworked to seamlessly
accommodate wider rubber and the liftgate has been fully
customized. The red paint draped over the exterior has the
hallmarks of a show-quality application - it's got a great shine
that seems to originate a foot below the surface, with no blemishes
to be found. The badgeless appearance of this C10 allows the
magnetic paint to take center stage and even the less noticeable
details have been looked after - there's fresh rubber surrounding
both the windshield and rear window and the headlights are crystal
clear.
That show quality exterior sets expectations pretty high, but just
inside the doors is an interior very much up to the challenge of
meeting them. This exceptional driving environment has been
thoroughly re-imagined from scratch and is it ever awesome! The
pair of low backed buckets wear snugly fitted leather covers with
gator skin accents that match the door panels to each side, and
they straddle a fully custom center console that houses an
assortment of neatly incorporated control switches and puts the TCI
shifter within easy reach. A billet steering wheel matching the
rest of the interior sits on a spotless chrome tilt column just in
front of an assortment of digital gauges in the instrument cluster.
Recessed into its own panel in the glove box is a JVC AM/FM/CD
unit, sitting right next to the controls for a climate control
system that's in good form to keep the cabin comfortable.
A fuel injected 5.7 liter LS1 engine sits at the center of an
engine bay reflecting the same unusually high standards as the rest
of this truck. Surrounded by a full complement of chrome and
polished accessories, the V8 wears a Weiand intake manifold, an
upgraded throttle body and a cold air intake system to maximize its
output and exhales into a pair of aftermarket headers to minimize
back pressure, sending a variable note out of the MagnaFlow dual
exhaust controlled by its cutouts. The powerplant pairs with a
4-speed automatic 4L60E transmission whose overdrive gear makes
this modded classic an effortless highway cruiser. In back, a 4
link rear-end equipped with coilovers provides a ride quality and
level of agility that would be far out of reach of the original
configuration. Power steering makes for easy navigation while power
disc brakes at all four corners bring this exceptional stepside to
prompt, dependable stops.
Exceptional workmanship, precise execution and a host of top
quality components make this 1962 Chevrolet C10 Restomod a
standout, even in the best company of custom vehicles. Call
