Vehicle Description
Rarely do vehicles we sell come out so lopsided in favor of the
buyer, but the truth is, you couldn't duplicate this 1984 Chevy C10
Silverado pickup with a budget much bigger than the asking price.
Slick Dark Gray paint, a custom leather interior, and plenty of big
block V8 power mean that this truck really has what it takes to get
noticed on Saturday night.
You can count me as one of those folks who like the look of the
short bed on a regular cab pickup because the proportions are
almost ideal. Of course, this truck is done hauling stuff, but with
the slammed stance and slick paint job (that color is called Dark
Gray Metallic, borrowed from the Alfa Romeo palette), it looks
about a mile long and thanks to a sizeable pile of cash going into
the paint and bodywork not long ago, it still looks fantastic.
Super straight bodywork is completely stock save for the rear roll
pan but it sure looks trick. Once everything was blocked and
straight, it received a few coats of Dark Gray Metallic paint, and
enough clear to make it all shine incredibly bright. A blacked-out
grille gives the front end a sleek look and the bed is protected
with a spray-in Ameraguard bedliner, so it still works as a truck.
Looks cool and practical? Win!
You know that a truck this dramatic on the outside needs to be
special inside, and it doesn't disappoint. Custom bucket wrapped in
leather TMI upholstery with red stitching look amazing, and they're
split by a uniquely designed middle console that houses a couple
cup holders. It's comfortable enough to live in all day and still
looks new. The original dash was wrapped in matching upholstery and
is full of modern VHX instruments that provide the driver with much
more accurate reading of the engine's vitals. Very cool custom door
panels blend in with the rest of the interior and you'll note that
this truck carries options like power windows and a tilt steering
column with an awesome Billet Specialties steering wheel mounted on
top, meaning that it's very user-friendly today. There's a modern
AM/FM/CD/AUX/Bluetooth head unit in the dash, which delivers sound
to a bevy of speakers throughout the truck. It also has a big rear
window, which is great for 360-degree vision and tinted glass helps
with temperatures and the cool factor.
Following the sizzling paint and eyeball-popping interior, the 454
cubic inch V8 under the hood still manages to steal the show.
Augmented with AFR 290 heads, a Victor Jr. intake, and a Holley
750CFM 4-barrel carburetor, the big block has lots of power and
low-end torque that ensure its prepared for any obstacle, For a
truck like this, it's important for it to have the power to back up
the look, and this C10 doesn't disappoint. Even so, it starts
easily, idles well, and moves the custom pickup with ease, all with
a great V8 soundtrack from the long-tube headers that feed the dual
exhaust with twin pipes exiting together just past the rear axle. A
700R4 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive powers the
Moser posi-traction rear end that features 3.90 gears, and the
incredible in-the-weeds stance looks cool without an abusive ride.
It's quite clean and detailed underneath, the Magnaflow mufflers
sound great, and 20-inch Ridler wheels carry staggered 245/40/20
front and 275/45/20 rear performance radials.
This is a whole heck of a lot of custom truck for the price of a
used Hyundai. If it's attention you crave, this truck will deliver
in a very big way. Call today!
