This 1966 Chevrolet C10 combines a cool color combo, a touch of the
right upgrades, and some very vintage details to make this feel
like a proper classic with true V8 cruiser appeal.
Bright red paint with touches of white artfully interwoven means
this truck reminds us of a Coca-Cola bottle. So it makes a nice
all-American first impression. Bright chrome bumpers, a wide
grille, full-length trim, and good-looking sheet metal really
amplify the classic attitude. Plus, the VIN tells us this was
originally a long bed pickup, but we like the shortened bed that's
here now because it's packed with details like color-matched liner
paint on the sides and nicely weather lumber in-between the bright
bed slats. But as vintage as this is there are just the right hints
of cruiser streetwise style with the Rally wheels and lowered
suspension.
The interior continues the thoughtful style. The dash, door panels,
and steering wheel have a very classic look and feel. But just like
a good truck, there were nice functional upgrades. For example,
this might have retained a bench seat, but it's a more modern unit
with plenty of bolstering and individual cloth inserts. There are
also the right components in place for a more modern air
conditioning system (it will need a compressor belt and possibly
other servicing.)
The smooth red inner walls and firewall channel your attention to
the bold orange motor in the middle. This is a period-correct 283
cubic-inch V8 that has a clean and stock presentation. So it fits
with this truck's fun but honest style. And if you dig a little
deeper, you'll see worthwhile upgrades like an Edelbrock intake and
an aluminum radiator. It makes for a hardy heart and proper V8
power. If this is starting to sound like an ideal cruising classic,
then you'll also appreciate easy driving features like a Powerglide
automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and the
comfortable trailing arm rear suspension.
This truck appreciates its history while making the right
investments to be a solid cruiser for today. That's why it's
irresistible. Call today!!!
