Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevrolet C10 has the look of a farm truck that has been
nicely restored to factory standards... and at today's car shows
that's exactly what people love to see. While this one remains as
honest as a hard day's work, you'll also sport a few desirable
upgrades, like air conditioning.
You can instantly see that this Chevy is a cut above. After all,
these trucks were often used and abused, but we're told this one
was under long-term ownership. It may have even possibly been with
only one family since new! So it's the kind of truck that gets
extra care. So the sheet metal shows quite well and the later
respray in green continues to have a nice lister. It makes for a
terrific way to show off the stepside bed. There were the right
investments here, but nothing is ever over-done. You have white
steel wheels, simple hubcaps, and real textured wood in the truck
bed. It's all just honest and that's awesome.
The interior continues the truck's straightforward appeal. You can
tell it has been under proper care with the clean bench seat, good
carpeting, nice door panels, and a smooth dash pad. We're
pleasantly surprised to see cold-blowing air conditioning to make
this a nice modern cruiser. But this never gets too fancy, and
that's why there's just a steel plate for the radio delete.
Instead, the attraction for this one is getting in touch with the
generation that came before you as you feel the grooves of the
thin/grippy stock steering wheel.
Lift the hood and see a true marvel. Hardly any of the smooth
running 230 cubic-inch straight-six motors are seen in vintage
Chevy trucks anymore. Although these anvils of a motor were the
backbone for the company's dependability reputation, they often get
replaced by the small-block V8s. We understand why this happens and
sell plenty of those custom trucks. But with so many of those out
there, it's refreshing and rare to see money invested into making
this workhorse look so stock and attractive. We're not alone. Those
who want to sneak a peek at your stalwart C10 will expect something
this honest in the engine bay. But beyond just appearance, features
like the three-speed manual transmission, newer tiers, and trailing
arm rear suspension means this one still knows how to be a proper
cruiser.
This is the C10 that can make lumber run on Saturday, and then you
can take it to the car show on Sunday. It's the family heirloom
that reminds us the best nostalgia includes a real day's work. Call
