1968 Chevrolet C10 For Sale - Built LS Engine, Complete Ground Up
Built Resto-Mod LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1968
Chevrolet C10 Chevrolet trucks have been on the road for more than
a century, with the company producing its first pickup way back in
1918. The Bowtie trucks have been good sellers ever since. This C10
is a part of the C/K truck line that began production in 1960 with
a series of light-duty and heavy-duty pickups. The C10 was a
rear-wheel drive half-ton model with choices of a 6.5-foot bed on a
115-inch wheelbase or an 8-foot bed on an extended 127-inch
wheelbase. The C10 featured an increased load capacity for its
front axle, as well as a larger cab and bigger windshield, all of
which contributed to overall better weight distribution than prior
models. This 1968 Chevrolet C10 short-bed pickup offered here for
sale is far from how it left the assembly line when new having
undergone a complete build with many performance and cosmetic
improvements. Painted in classic and stunning Cardinal Red with a
custom Black interior, this truck is menacing! It sports brand new
front and rear chrome bumpers and emblems. When you investigate the
bed you see a brand-new wood bed with stainless steel strips. The
stunning Black interior has been outfitted with custom seats,
Lecarra steering wheel, Autometer gauges, Lokar Shifter, Ididit
tilt column and Retro Sound Radio with Bluetooth. The most
impressive aspect of this resto-mod C10 is how it performs.
Starting with the drivetrain is a 5.7L LS engine with forged
pistons, H-beam rods, ported AFR cylinder heads, custom camshaft,
LS6 intake, upgraded valve springs, pushrods and much more. This
combination packs a heavy punch producing well over 400hp! The
engine is backed up by a 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission with
an overdrive gear ratio for better highway cruising. Although this
powerplant makes plenty of grunt, it is still extremely compliant
and drivable under normal cruising conditions. Suspension is such
an important part of any Pro-Touring build. This truck has a QA1
setup including tubular upper and lower A-arms, drop spindles, new
shocks, coil springs and Panhard bar. Braking duties are handled by
Corvette 13" front rotors with 4-piston calipers and 11" in the
rear with 4-piston calipers. Completing the handling package are
20inch US Mags wheels with Nitto Tires. This beautiful built 1968
Chevrolet C10 Resto-Mod is the perfect summer cruiser! Additional
