Vehicle Description
This 1968 Chevrolet K20 4x4 has received upgrades in all the right
places. So you can look at the bold paint, A/C interior,
four-on-the-floor, serious suspension lift, and growling big block
power. It makes for the show-ready truck that also has the right
tools to still get the job done.
The orange paint is a more recent upgrade that has both depth and
radiance every time the sunshine finds the sheet metal. And they
invested in far more than just a quality application. There is
straightness to the body panels that tell you this truck was
restored with care. In fact, the work was completed in 2015, and it
has only been driven about 500 miles since then, so there's a
freshness here that tells you it has just spent most of its time
tucked away under the included car cover. The same quality can be
seen on details like the new headlights, bright chrome bumpers,
pliable weather-stripping, clean trim, and we especially love how
the Chevrolet lettering in the tailgate is a subtly different shade
of orange. But more than just look good, this is a true truck with
true ability. Those awesome Fuel 18-inch wheels have seriously
meaty tires, and they also show off the extra-tall 4x4 stance. And
if you do feel like doing real truck duty, the color-matched liner
protects the inner walls, and the long bed means you're only making
one trip to Home Depot.
Just like the exterior, the interior received nice investments in
quality and comfort. For example, the seat has comfy velour-like
inserts and cool orange stitching to match the paint. The door
panels were even done to match. And the dash pad, sun visors,
steering wheel grip, and carpeting all coordinate in a fresh black.
This has terrific features like an AM/FM/CD stereo w/Bluetooth, a
handsfree mic, upgraded speakers, a sliding rear window, and R134a
air conditioning. The sports steering wheel and floor shifter feel
good in your hands, and the full gauge package w/tach looks crisp
and clean.
Under the hood, the smooth and dark inner fenders and bright
firewall help show off the tidy engine bay. But what will really
attract attention is the big block in the middle. This 454
cubic-inch V8 has been built with a Holley four-barrel carburetor,
Edelbrock intake, cast bow tire valve covers, and jet-hot coated
headers. The V8 fires up readily, idles nicely, and it makes a
sweet rumble out of the Flowmaster dual exhaust. While the
undercarriage looks just as fresh as the rest of this truck, this
one was built for far more than just shows. The four-speed manual
transmission has a low first so that you can get some rock-crawling
torque right from the start. This trans feeds into a beefy 14-bolt
rear end. Plus, you have the two-speed 4x4 transfer case, Tuff
Country lift kit, and Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ off-road tires are
all there to keep you going strong. More than just stout, this has
nice all-around features, like power steering, hydro boost power
brakes, and front discs.
Complete with build receipts, this is a comprehensively restored
and upgraded truck (the VIN suggests the cab was actually borrowed
from a straight/clean C10.) This is the mean classic pickup that
has been given nice investments in all the right places. So it's
time for a show-ready 4x4. Call now!
