For Sale: 1969 Chevrolet C10 in Lavergne, Tennessee

This 1969 Chevrolet C10 Stepside truly represents the best of everything vintage. It's a restored pickup that will transport you half a century back in time with one of the most honest and clean presentations you'll find anywhere. And the reason why you can find such a vintage pickup is because this is the first time it has ever been offered outside of the original family.

There have been some big investments all around this truck. The light blue paint sets the tone nicely for a 1960s machine. And the quality of the respray really takes you back to when this one first hit the road. You also see good work in the new chrome bumpers, glossy wood on the bed floor, and overall clean lines of the sheetmetal. None of this takes away from the classic feeling, and instead, it just helps turn back the clock. This Chevy is really all about a vintage kind of cool, right down to the great-looking wheel setup with color-matched steelies, white hub caps, and coordinating whitewall tires. The reason for such a classic truck is because this one has a true family history. It was purchased new outside of Knoxville by the grandfather. It has remained in Tennessee through the father and now the son. In fact, the son is a country music artist. So doesn't it just seem like the kind of pickup that deserves a song?

Just like the exterior, the interior has been restored to be clean, simple, and absolutely vintage. The upgrades are the kinds of features that you could get on a 1960s C10. It includes the cool western-style pattern in the door panels and Chevy's iconic Houndstooth cloth inserts in the seats. And the sliding rear window is there so that you can make sure to get old-school breezes through the cab of this old-school pickup. The only real modern upgrade you're going to spot is out of the way in the headliner. This has a newer AM/FM/CD stereo setup that includes an aux input for your iPod. After all, you need proper driving music in a musician's truck.

True classic truck lovers will marvel at this ultra-clean and ultra-honest engine bay. The 250 cubic-inch inline six is a year-correct block, and on a one-family vehicle, it's hard to believe this is anything but original to the truck. So while we all know that Chevy's big blocks will fit in this ample engine bay, that's not the point of owning this one. It's simple, correct, and strong - just like the best pickups once were. You take control of the motor with the classic action of the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission, and it gives you that unbeatable vintage easy cruising feel. It's a smooth runnier that was even driven a few hours down to our showroom. The extremely clean undercarriage shows you just how thorough the restoration was. Plus, it shows off some nice driving features like the trailing arm rear suspension and the modern tread disguised as classic whitewalls.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and some original dealer paperwork. This is a vintage stunner, and so if you love a true classic truck, you know you can't let this one get away. Call today!!!
