Vehicle Description
This 1969 Chevrolet G10 spent over 40 years with one owner who
continually upgraded this and evolved it into the full custom build
you see today. So as you dig through all the details, you're going
to discover everything from the added style of a gullwing door and
a vista roof, to the added function of V8 power and a 4x4
drivetrain.
More than just custom, we know this G10 is a true classic. It was
the first of the G-Series and, and it was only in production for a
few years. So it's a true rarity out there today that will first
turn heads for its true classic nature. But of course, what makes
it memorable is the full custom style. We like the silver and black
paint with magenta and blue accents. It established the full color
theme in a way that also reminds you that this is a drivable 4x4.
Plus, announces this is a full custom with a touch of retro-cool
fun. This became a life-long passion for its creator, and you see
it in all the impressive details. The roof was chopped five inches,
but then you get some of the headroom back with the Vista Cruiser
panoramic roof that was adapted. There's a custom front bumper, a
fully smoothed rear, and an awesome set of faux side pipes. Plus,
the gullwing door on the side has a cool sense of style, and it can
also double as an awning. It's part of a thoughtful style that
shows decades of inspection, evolution, and expert
craftsmanship.
The custom work is especially appreciated inside. The gray
carpeting and tweed look clean and complete. The magenta and blue
also return throughout for a uniform and thoughtful style. Sports
seats, a TV, VCR, cup holder console, and a full AM/FM/CD stereo
are nice comfort features. We like the overall presentation because
it's not the most modern color theme, and after all, you don't want
modern on a classic van. However, it also isn't fish tanks and shag
carpet that are just impractical and old. The custom wraparound
sofa turns into a sleeper bed and the Webasto-style sunroof is
great for a night under the stars. So this custom van is also a
great one for a weekend getaway.
Chevy's hardy 305 cubic-inch V8 is mounted in-between the seats for
a nice weight balance. Good balance and good torque are essential
for this custom because there was also a Jeep front diff added to
give you a true 4x4 setup. So this van is ready for the car show or
a camping trip. In fact, with features like a three-speed automatic
transmission and front disc brakes, this was made to cruiser
everywhere in style.
The sale comes complete with build photos and the story of the
van's evolution. This is a lifetime of custom work that truly
represents the best of the custom car culture. Call today!!!
