This 1969 Chevrolet C10 has a full custom style with a sporty
exterior, a comfy upgraded interior, and a strong small block under
the hood. It makes for the kind of restored classic that makes for
an awesome cruiser.
The exterior gives you the right classic style with beefy lines,
curvy stepside rear fenders, and attractive real lumber in the
truck bed. There have also been solid investments in brightwork
like the bumpers and trim. But this truck is more than iconic
classic pieces. The Magnetic Gray Metallic paint is a modern color
with a nice glow to make sure people pay attention. The cowl hood,
polished exhaust tips, and stylish 20-inch Ridler alloys give this
classic a true sports truck style. There are even nice details like
the LED marker lights and the fuel tank moved under the bed. It all
makes for a thoughtful and attractive total impression on a truck
that loves to be a true cruiser. So it's for the kind of person who
doesn't want to be too nervous about really driving it, and the
reward is a style that's memorable at every single
intersection.
Another part of being road-ready is delivering a more comfortable
interior. The gray cloth bench is vastly more comfortable than
anything that came out of the 1960s. They have high-back headrests,
and when you don't need the jump seat, the middle folds down for a
bucket-like setup. And you'll love the details like new carpeting,
added Dynamat insulation, smooth dash, good window rubbers, and
clean door panels all make this inviting. And we love the ability
to have modern driving music with an AM/FM stereo that features a
USB input and Bluetooth. The billet sports steering wheel, tilt
steering column, and full AutoMeter gauge package with large speedo
and tach are all part of making sure you are in confident command
of this upgraded Chevy.
The engine bay has a terrific style with smooth inner walls that
showcase the tidy powerhouse in the middle. This 350 cubic-inch V8
is built for power with a four-barrel carburetor, aluminum intake,
and headers. Plus, the dual exhaust note has a sweet rumble that
indicates a mild cam. The engine fires up readily, runs with
confidence, and it's mated to a stout TH400 three-speed automatic
transmission that feeds a 12-bolt rear end. We're told this was a
frame-off restoration, and that means newer front-end chassis
components and bushings to really feel solid on the road. Plus,
power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a trailing arm rear
suspension deliver quite a nice riding and driving classic.
This C10 is distinct, comfy, and ready to hit the road. So if
you're looking for a driver's classic pickup that knows how to turn
heads, call today!!!
