Vehicle Description
There's serious style in this 1970 Chevrolet C10 restomod pickup.
With the awesome custom exterior, fuel-injected Vortec power, and a
beautiful and comfy interior, it's a head-turning cruiser. So
people will wonder what car show you're going to even if you're
just on a milk run.
The Octane red paint is an unmistakably modern color that won't
confuse this car for anything straight from the factory. The glossy
finish of the cherry hue takes advantage of the smoother style that
comes from deleted badging to let the light dance across the whole
truck's body. In fact, the finish feels just as smooth as it looks,
and so you can really tell you can detail it on a Saturday and be
ready for a prime sport at the car show on a Sunday. And there's
plenty to show off here. We love how this one borrows a few cues
from Chevy's muscle cars, like the power dome cowl hood and a
hidden headlight front end that's pure Camaro RS cool. Plus, it
shows off it has its own sense of custom style with the 20-inch
Bonspeed wheels. They sit on a lowered stance to make sure to
really set this one apart. But even with all this custom work, this
still keeps the classic C10 premium full-length trim with wood-like
inserts. It's a nice reminder that adding distinction doesn't mean
forgetting where you come from.
The interior blends vintage style and upgrades with comfort in
mind. The custom tan bench with tartan cloth inserts has a great
1970s vibe. But the moment you sit down, you feel the kind of
bolstering that comes from a modern setup. The carpeting, door
panels, and dash pad all have the inviting look of a proper
investment. You've also got better driving music thanks to the
retro-style AM/FM stereo w/aux input. There are even provisions for
R134a air conditioning (it will need servicing to blow cold again.)
It's also a fine driver with a grippy Chevy sports steering wheel
and full Digital gauge cluster with speedo and tach.
The extra-tidy 5.3-liter Vortec V8 is a fun upgrade to have under
the hood. After all, it's a Chevy truck motor but one from many
generations younger than this classic C10. So just like the rest of
the truck, it's an upgrade that respects its legacy. Plus, a
fuel-injected powerhouse really makes this restomod a true cruiser.
And you'll appreciate the details everywhere from the aluminum
radiator that helps keep it all cool to the header-fed dual exhaust
that gives you a nice V8 tone. The TH400 three-speed automatic
transmission is a stout unit that feeds the 12-bolt rear end. This
has a narrowed Moser axles setup to upgrade the strength while also
fitting those extra-wide rear wheels. A custom like this is meant
to be driven, and so you've got great anytime features like a
trailing arm rear suspension, power steering, power brakes w/front
discs, and the grip of ZR-rated sport tires.
This C10 has the comfort, distinction, and investments to make it a
head-turner with true driver appeal. So if you want an all-day
cruiser that also has award-worthy potential, call today!
