Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevrolet C10 custom is a very cool representation of a
truck restored to remain a cool classic. Shining paint, a comfy A/C
interior, and what is believed to be the original V8 power all come
together on a pickup that also has a terrific story.
This truck is looking for its fourth owner, but the story we're
told suggests it hasn't gone very far in its life. It was first
passed from father to son, and then to the son's neighbor. So it
has the feeling of a pickup that was admired by a close circle. It
also explains why you get such a well-done vintage presentation
today. You can tell that the olive green paint is part of a later
refresh just by the way it shines. The body lines are quite
straight, and the full-length trim helps to highlight that. Chrome
bumpers, a wide grille, good trim, and Rally wheels all add to the
well-done look. Plus, the color matched locking bed cover makes for
a nice way to keep the bed looking weather-tight and carefully take
cargo.
This was born with a gold cloth trim upholstery, and that makes for
a timelessly attractive color combo against the exterior deep
green. It was even updated later in life to make sure the seat,
door panels, and carpeting all feel plush. There are
well-integrated upgrades for added comfort, like the retro-style
AM/FM stereo w/cassette and the factory air conditioning blowing
cold with modern R134a refrigerant. Of course, you'll really want
to get most of your breezes just by opening the side vent windows
and sliding the rear glass for a proper pickup draft.
The engine is a 350 cubic-inch V8, as advertised on the front
fenders. And because this truck has kept such a small circle within
its life thus far, this is even believed to be the numbers-matching
block. It has a stock look with the bright Chevy orange motor,
color matched valve covers, and a black air topper. It fires up
nicely as this inhales deeply from the four-barrel carburetor. And
the updated dual exhaust makes a nice tune. The trailing arm rear
suspension makes the C10 a good cruiser. Plus, you have great
anytime driving features like the three-speed automatic
transmission, power steering, power brakes, and wide BF Goodrich
T/A rubber at all four corners.
Complete with the owner's manual packet, this is a nicely presented
pickup that has all the features you want - including a great story
to tell. Call now!
