Vehicle Description
How do you take a timeless Chevy and make it even more appealing?
You start with a list of choice upgrades, execute a professional,
frame-off restoration, and top everything off with a hotted up
version of GM's proven LS small block! When it comes to
performance, durability and sheer popularity, nothing beats a
Golden Era Chevrolet. And, thanks to their simplicity and heavy
duty hardware, classics like the brand's storied C10 are ideal
foundations for sweet customs with excellent drivability. This
trick truck is the literal embodiment of American Muscle. Upgrades
like custom upholstery and a smooth automatic transmission make it
perfect for unforgettable driving experiences, while handsome
lines, an exceptional stance and miles of rich two-stage are sure
to create curb appeal. Looking for a 'just right' classic that's
road ready, show-ready and just plain battle-ready? Here it is!
SLICK AS OBSIDIAN
The product of a detailed, professional restoration that was
completed by the pros at Greenville, South Carolina's Creative Rods
and Restoration, this super cool Chevy is clean, mean and ready to
roll! Naturally, the build was a frame-off affair that included top
notch metal work. And that enticing Honda Obsidian Blue Pearl
you're busy admiring was carefully coordinated with a roster of
tasteful details. The truck's slick Glasurit two-stage kicks off
with a color-keyed bumper, which guards a polished and "C H E V R O
L E T" branded grille that's finished with traditional halogen
headlights. A domed hood pushes stainless-trimmed marker lamps
opposite a crisp greenhouse, which rolls traditional, two-piece
side glass behind a polished mirror and polished wipers. At the
sides of that glass, a smooth profile hangs trick billet door
handles behind custom, LS1-themed fender emblems. And at the back
of the truck, a glossy wood bed hides a billet fuel filler behind a
stamped gate, polished LED taillights and a second color-keyed
bumper.
LS1 + LS3 = LS FAST
Take a peek under this classic's unique hood and you'll find 5.7
liters of stout small block that's been fully rebuilt, thoughtfully
modded and lovingly polished by Greenville, South Carolina's
Creative Rods and Restoration. Straight from the factory, GM's
celebrated LS1 combines a sturdy aluminum block with lightweight
aluminum heads, coil-near-plug ignition and aluminum flat top
pistons to create razor sharp throttle response and lightning quick
acceleration. And, in addition to all that factory-engineered
swagger, this C10's glowing LS1 features a hot LS3 cam that ups the
ante to roughly 400 horsepower! At the front of the mill, a fresh
AIRAID filter cone funnels breeze through a short tube, which feeds
a factory throttle body that's cinched to an Obsidian Blue Pearl
intake. A polished serpentine drive spins a polished alternator
opposite a coated AC compressor. High octane fossils are juiced by
GM electronic fuel injection and sparked by sleeved plug wires.
Spent gases traverse a slick pair of ceramic-coated tubes. Cooling
comes courtesy of a painted DeWitts radiator that's complete with
spry SPAL puller fans. And this Chevy's Obsidian Blue Pearl engine
bay is detailed with niceties like custom fuel rail covers, billet
hood supports and a quality Wilwood master cylinder.
LOW AND READY TO GO
Not surprisingly, the bottom of this first class C10 is fully
sorted and ready to roll, all the way from the truck's undercoated
floors to its 20-gallon fuel tank. Behind the LS1 you'll find a
predictable 4L60E 4-speed that was fully rebuilt by, you guessed
it, the folks at Creative Rods and Restoration. That gearbox powers
a tough 12-bolt axle that's finished with a posi-traction
differential and 3.73 gears. Everything rolls low and mean on a
familiar, factory-style suspension that's been thoughtfully
upgraded with beefy sway bars and Monroe Gas-Magnum shocks. Lucid
power steering makes parking easy and turns a cinch. Quick stops
come courtesy of power-assisted discs and power-assisted drums. The
aforementioned headers feed large-diameter pipes, which route roars
through an X-shape crossover and polished MagnaFlow mufflers. And
power meets the pavement through chrome Ridler 650s, which spin
255/55R18 Nitto NT420S.
CUSTOMIZED COMFORT
Enact this Chevy's retrofitted bear claw door latches and you'll
reveal a tastefully customized cockpit that's classy in all the
right ways. Attractive, French-stitched upholstery dresses quality
TMI buckets at the sides of a tidy armrest. A handsome dash hangs
serious Omega Kustom telemetry next to controls for Vintage Air
conditioning and modern, direct-fit audio that bumps big kick
speakers. Premium carpet, protected by Chevrolet-themed mats,
anchors modern lap belts on a carefully curated combination of
HushMat and Dynaliner. Billet foot pedals lead a dressed Lokar
shifter. Customized door panels front trick power windows. And the
driver spins a 14-inch, bowtie-branded steering wheel around a
tilting Flaming River column.
