Vehicle Description
They got the formula for this vintage hauler right. Start with a
classic 1966 Chevrolet C60 truck that has earned its patina. Then
add in the right elements, like a powerful V8, an A/C interior, and
some proper tow equipment. Then show off its true intentions with a
fully adjustable air ride suspension. The result is one of the
coolest classics that has size and substance.
The C60 of this era is quite an attractive truck. It has the same
tapered waistline design as the first-gen C10 but with a more
imposing industrial-strength face. The cab of this truck is
believed to have earned its true patina, and so that just adds to
the appeal of its workman roots. And it also has all the best
work-duty features like the top marker lights, tall towing mirrors,
and a front bumper that's big enough to push just about anything
out of its way. There are even true Alcoa 22-inch wheels. Plus, the
long bed is especially cool with the weathered wood and aged steel
that give it the right vibe to go with the patina. There are also
practical features like a gooseneck hitch, bumper tow hitch, and
mounting points to create a stake-side bed. But none of that is
what attracts you to this. Instead, it's that pure hot/rat rod
style that makes this one great. You see details like the side
pipes and classic barrels over the dual rear wheels. And the custom
frame is one display that lets the adjustable air ride suspension
get low. So you can watch jaws drop to the ground as this big
industrial truck lowers all the way to the ground.
The interior is a pure rat rod cool with a weathered Chevy classic
with some added distinction. They did the right things like add
some insulation, borrow a custom bench seat from an old build, and
add a tall Lokar floor shifter for a Rat Fink kind of feel. And you
can really tell the true level of thoughtfulness with the modern
air ride controller on the seat and cold-blowing air
conditioning.
A big truck needs a big powerhouse, and this one loves to show off
its big block. The 454 cubic-inch V8 has a tidy look and a nice
polished style on the Edelbrock valve covers, tall air grabber, and
custom inner fenders. You have the right power upgrades with an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Offenhauser intake, and
headers feeding the side pipes. You also have good supporting
components like the HEI distributor and an aluminum radiator with
electric fans. A stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, and front disc brakes are all about creating a
package that updates this industrial hauler to make it a better
cruiser.
This is that unique machine where work meets play on a
commercial-grade level. You can have a lot of fun with a custom
that's this unique. Call today!!!
