Vehicle Description
It's no secret that Chevrolet builds some of the most celebrated
trucks on the planet. From the 490 Series forward, every generation
has found a solid following and, eventually, firm footing in the
collector car world. Over the past few years, we've featured plenty
of show stopping bowties, and this sleek Action Line resto-mod is
just the latest in a series of sweet Chevy head turners. Mixing 6.2
liters of buttery LSA V8 with a tough 6L90 6-speed, and slick
street rod aesthetics that'll park well at any show, this clean
classic is simply fantastic. Shopping for a choice collectable that
mixes timeless swagger with svelte style? Take a close look at this
awesome C10!
BAD IN BLACK
Fully sorted and ready to roll, this sweet Chevy walks a fine line
between sport and shine. Under the truck's rich two-stage, a solid
fuselage hangs clean panels that have been carefully massaged by
the pros at Easley, South Carolina's King's Kustomizing. And that
body's combination of great reflections and flat surfaces
illustrate how, over the course of this classic's five-year,
six-figure build, quality certainly took precedence over time. A
nicely contrasted grille hangs LED parking lamps between trick
United Pacific headlights that are finished with nicely contrasted
buckets. A shaved hood fronts color-keyed wipers, which clear a
tinted greenhouse that's finished with muted trim and one-piece
side glass. Billet mirrors reflect a sleek profile that's been
shaved of everything but polished handles and custom exhaust
outlets. Behind the cab, an aluminum bed floor swirls monochromatic
texture around a billet fuel filler. And at the back of the truck,
traditional taillights frame a smoothed tailgate and a requisite
roll pan.
BADDER WITH A BLOWER
This pickup's top-notch restoration is built around 6.2 liters of
stout LSA V8 that pumps out a massive 556 horsepower straight for
the factory! Exclusive to the second-generation Camaro ZL1 and
second-generation Cadillac CTS-V, the LSA utilizes a lightweight
aluminum block and big Eaton blower to spin up an easy nine pounds
of boost. Inside the internally balanced mill, a forged crank,
powdered connecting rods and hypereutectic pistons join a low-lift
roller cam to create stout 9.1 to 1 compression. That compression
is managed by reinforced, LSA-specific heads, which hide lucid
roller rockers under factory coils and factory valve covers. Those
heads get fed by Aeromotive fuel components, which are a perfect
complement to a custom air tube, a factory throttle body and a
remote filter element. Beneath that tube, a heavy duty serpentine
belt spins a muted alternator opposite a muted Sanden AC
compressor. A color-keyed radiator keeps things cool with the help
of a polished expansion tank and dual SPAL puller fans. Exhaust is
handled by coated Hedman Husler Hedders. And the truck's crisp
silver engine bay is dotted with first class accessories like
polished tanks, tailored wire sleeves and a familiar Wilwood master
cylinder.
THE WAY IT SHOULD SIT
Behind that trusty powerplant, a smooth 6L90 6-speed, likely
sourced from the same low-mile CTS-V as the aforementioned LSA,
twists torque to a tough 12-bolt axle. Everything rolls low and
mean on a fully adjustable QA-1 suspension that's built with big
sway bars, tubular control arms, coil-over-shocks and tubular truck
arms. Power rack-and-pinion steering makes parking easy and turns a
cinch. Quick stops come courtesy of power-assisted discs, which
clamp hard in front of Belltech drop spindles. The aforementioned
headers feed heat-wrapped Black Widow mufflers, which roar through
stainless, Mandrel-bent pipes. Choice detailing includes a custom
fuel tank, an electric parking brake and two Optima batteries. And
power meets the pavement through sweet Budnik Knifes, which spin
235/50R20 Pirelli Scorpion Zeros in front of 305/40ZR20 Pirelli P
Zeros.
THE STYLE IT SHOULD BE
Swivel the doors and you'll reveal a lovingly customized cockpit
that's classy in all the right ways. A sculpted TMI bench looks
great between modern shoulder belts and fade-free carpet. A
stylized dash hangs tasteful Dakota Digital telemetry beside cool
Vintage Air conditioning and a Kenwood touchscreen head unit that
bumps big kick speakers. Sculpted door panels point billet handles
in front of quick power windows. A long Lokar shifter rides a
handsome console between metal foot pedals and a billet rearview
mirror. The driver spins a Budnik GTV steering wheel around a
tilting column. And modern conveniences include Keyless Entry and
Pushbutton Start.
Perpetually cool and visually stunning, this awesome Chevy is a
classic example of the skill and creativity that defines our hobby.
Backing great presence with excellent restoration, it presents the
rare opportunity to land a well-done showstopper that's fresh,
formidable and ready to shine. Don't miss your chance to own this
sweet C10!
