Vehicle Description
This 1972 Chevrolet C10 is a restomod in all the best ways. The
classic lines have upgraded styling. The interior has more
cruiser-level comforts. And the fuel-injected V8 under the hood
works with the overdrive transmission to deliver the kind of
experience you could drive every day.
The white paint has a smooth and good gloss that you want on a
classic pickup. It has a brightness that complements the shine of
brightwork pieces like the big chrome bumpers, side mirrors, and
door handles. And the brightness also means you pay attention to
contrasting pieces, like the blackout grille. And the dark gray
stain on the oak wood bed is a particularly nice touch. It's all
about creating a good-looking pickup without taking away from the
road-ready attitude. After all, a restomod is meant to be driven,
and so this one doesn't want to feel so premium that you'd shy away
from driving it all day. It's also why some of the most attractive
upgrades also make it a better cruiser. The modern headlights have
a cool halo glow and show the way forward better, and the 20-inch
wheels fill the wheel wells better and allow you to fit better
driving tires.
The interior seems to be all about integrating the right upgrades.
For example, the seats are modern bucket units with outstanding
bolstering, adjustable headrests, shoulder belts, and a folding
center jump seat. They are finished in supple black leather with
ostrich inserts, and the door panels are made to match. So it's
both attractive and comfy. And everything from plush carpeting to
the smooth dash pad shows quality was a priority. A classic truck
like this was made for comfortable cruising, and so it also offers
the right upgrades like an upgraded Chevy steering wheel and an
AM/FM stereo with USB and Bluetooth. This even appears to be a
factory air conditioning truck, but you will need most components
to restore the function. And the cool blue glow of the readouts
makes for a nice modern touch that feels right in a restomod.
The engine bay has the unmistakable look of upgraded power. After
all, the Vortec name was decades away in the GM world when this
truck was produced. This 5.3-liter fuel-injected V8 is related to
the LS family, and so you have proper fuel-injected pickup power.
Plus, there were plenty of additional investments for a great
all-around truck. So you'll spot items in the engine bay like the
CPP master cylinder, an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans,
and headers feeding the dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers. The
4L60E four-speed automatic transmission was built to go with this
motor, and so you have a strong and smooth total package. There are
plenty more desirable driver's features like a stout 12-bolt rear
end, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the trailing
arm rear suspension that makes these C10s so popular.
This is a cool-looking classic that's also a ton of fun to drive.
So you know you need to hurry on this deal. Call today!!!
