Vehicle Description
What do you get when you combine the smooth aesthetics of a
timeless classic with the spry spirit of a Street Stock race car?
This incredible Chevy C10! With the universal appeal of
all-American eye candy, and the all-out performance of a weekend
track champ, this slick pickup is a unique, well-built hot rod that
provides its owner the best of both worlds. And what's better: you
can have your showstopper and drive it too for a fraction of the
money and time it takes to complete a ground-up build!
BODY-IN-WHITE
A head-turning cruiser that's dashed with a fair amount of modern
muscle car swagger, this exclusive C10 features a buckled down,
custom appearance that's highlighted by a crisp coat of Bright
White two-stage. That pigment wraps a solid profile that, during an
acute build, was lovingly massaged to form. And today, this classic
rolls as one lights-out custom that's ready to start conversations
at the meet or at the stoplight!
There really isn't much you can do to make an Action Line Chevy
more attractive. The truck's stout styling was a homerun when
originally introduced, and today, it's a stunning example of some
of the strongest elements of the highly regarded Mid Century
movement. At the front of this cherry custom, a broad bumper tilts
a painted grille around modern headlights and clear parking lamps.
An extensively modified hood points Satin Black heat extractors in
front of a chip-free greenhouse that's finished with one-piece side
glass. That glass gets reflected in modern Mustang mirrors, which
blend right in with factory markers and billet Ringbrothers door
handles. The truck's full roll cage is most prominent in a painted
bed, which hides a relocated fuel filler beneath a NASCAR-style
spoiler. And that spoiler shades a coyly lettered tailgate between
factory taillights and a second broad bumper.
LS NATION!
Enact this classic's lightweight hood and you'll find an even six
liters of proven Chevrolet small block that, officially dubbed the
GM LS2, spins smooth horsepower into miles of open-road
reliability! At the top of that aluminum mill, a remote K&N
filter funnels wind into a big K&N tube, which fronts a proven
GM throttle body that was professionally ported by Concord North
Carolina's Advanced Induction. A 92mm FAST intake, also ported by
Advanced Induction, sends a finely tuned mixture of fuel and air
into GM 243 heads that, you guessed it, were ported by Advanced
Induction. Those heads float Chevy Orange valve covers over ARP
bolts and a hot Advanced Induction Tiger Shark cam. A Kwik-tinged
serpentine drive spins modern power steering opposite a modern
alternator and a modern AC compressor. Factory coils fire Belden
plug wires, which split coated Doug Thorley headers. A hearty
Griffin radiator twins electric puller fans next to a Moroso catch
can. Details like stainless lines, a Wilwood clutch reservoir and
Classic Performance Products brake components ensure first-class
athleticism. And the clean, Cast Silver mill rides in a smooth,
Satin Black bay.
SEAMLESS UPGRADES
Take a long look under this Chevy and you'll find a roster of
significant modifications that add up to impressive dynamics and
big performance gains. The buff LS2 utilizes a tough Tremec T56
6-speed to twist a trusty 12-bolt axle that's built with big, 3.73
gears. That axle pushes a planted Ridetech 4-link that's finished
with modern coil-over-shocks. Opposite that clip, Ridetech
StrongArm control arms string a second set of modern coil-overs
behind an upsized sway bar. Turns come courtesy of traditional
power steering. Stops are quick and precise thanks to
power-assisted CPP calipers and a quartet of drilled and slotted
rotors. Ample fuel is supplied by an Aeromotive 340 Stealth pump,
which drains a big stainless tank that's centered beside a
relocated Optima battery. Spent gases are managed by aluminized
pipes, which make excellent use of welded, dual-chamber mufflers.
And power pounds the pavement through muted wheels, which spin
285/40ZR18 Nitto NT555 Extreme ZRs in front of 305/45R18 Nitto
NT555R Extreme Drags.
JUST THE ESSENTIALS
There's no shortage of hot rods with customized interiors, but a
classic this cool always stands out! Built around the simple desire
to drive, this C10's fully caged cockpit kicks off with a sculpted
bench seat that supplies 3-point RJS harnesses for the driver and
one lucky passenger. In front of that perch, a weave-look dash
hangs precise Dakota Digital telemetry next to controls for Vintage
Air conditioning and a well-integrated USB port. Fade-free carpet
centers a long Bowler shifter beside billet foot pedals. Muted
Ringbrothers door handles join muted Ringbrothers window cranks to
dot handsome TMI door panels. And the driver drifts curves through
a DRIVEN Circuit steering wheel.
This sweet Chevy is a well-done classic that was built to be driven
AND seen. It uses top-notch components from some of the best names
in the business to create a unique custom that mixes killer
personality with awesome curb appeal. Looking for a road ready hot
rod that's guaranteed to draw a crowd wherever you go? Your search
is officially over!
