Vehicle Description
1967 Chevrolet C10 - 5.3L V8 - Borgwarner Turbo Kit - 4L60E
Automatic Transmission - Red Over Black Interior - Power Seats This
1967 Chevrolet C10 featured here is just another example some of
the amazing vintage trucks we have in stock here at Garage Kept
Motors. This short box step-side truck started out life as a pretty
cool vehicle just as it was ordered when it left the Chevrolet
Truck Plant in St. Louis in 1967, however combined with the recent
upgrades made to this truck this resto-mod truck has been
transformed into a real head turner that is an incredible to drive.
Th GM Flame red paint is well applied over professional body work
and shines with a deep luster. The body panel alignment is near
perfect and far exceeds factory specifications. The factory mirrors
and door handles are all new, however the factory emblems have been
removed to give this truck a subtle smoothed look. Bumpers are
brand new and the chrome glows with a deep shine. The truck bed is
well restored with new wood that has been refinished with a deep
clear finish. It is clear there has not been one nut or bolt left
untouched during the restoration and rebuild of this truck. Inside
the cab the black interior continues the subtle upgrades that
complement the iconic style of the trucks original style. Door
panels are factory originals, and new carpet has been installed up
the rear of the cab to add additional sound deadening. The custom
bucket seats feature power seat adjustments and a console from a
late model Chevrolet truck. Similarly late model truck gauges have
been installed in the dash to monitor the vitals and give the truck
a modern feel but still maintains the look of the original dash. An
aftermarket tilt steering wheel is topped with a Grant Steering
wheel. The interior presents as new throughout and the subtle
upgrades truly compliment the traditional style of the truck. The
underbody is clean and free of any rust. The frame has been
stripped and repainted. The truck has been lowered using a
professional kit including matching gas shocks and front sway bar.
The front suspension has been completely rebuilt and features power
steering and this truck rolls like it's new and handles as if it
was on rails. The power assisted four-wheel disc brakes on the
front and rear bring it all to halt with no fade. The fuel tank has
been removed from inside the cab and a aluminum fuel cell sits
between the rails at rear of the frame under the bed. The turbo's
exhaust is well plumbed and exits in front of the tires on the
passenger side. This all rolls on 16 polished Ridler wheels wrapped
in BF Goodrich low profile Sport T/A tires. Under the hood sits a
5.3-liter V8 that has been turbocharged with a Borg Warner turbo
kit. The LS swap is clean and professional, and the routing of the
intake and turbo is well channeled and neat. The presentation under
the hood is well detailed and will look great with the hood popped
at your local show or cruise in. But this combination does more
than look good, it is well sorted and produces 415 HP and 432 TQ at
the rear wheels. The power all flows an upgraded 4L60E Automatic
Transmission. This combination of outstanding power, excellent
handling and braking will make it a shame to simply show this
truck, this truck belongs on the track or at an autocross. Please
call if you are interested in the vehicle or send us an email if
you have specific questions.
