Vehicle Description
1970 Chevrolet C-10 is a modified vehicle with updates to the
exterior. The owner has had it for 1 year. The vehicle runs great.
Awesome Custom C40 truck The original truck was an old farm truck
with longer stake bed. It was modified by shortening the frame and
fabricating a C10 bed with extended metal fender flares from
another truck to cover the dually axles. The rear fender flares
were cut from another C40 and welded into an 8 foot C10 bed. The
right front fender was welded to the left rear and vice versa. The
running boards from the other truck were also utilized to extend
the side running boards. Two trucks and tons of labor hours were
necessary to build this very unique truck. The truck's restoration
was completed in 2021 including a new paint job in GM copper of the
era, and Ford Wimbledon White for a nice two tone appearance. Brand
new side moldings were installed after the paintwork. This is an
all original drivetrain including the original straight six, 292ci
with a 4-speed transmission. This truck starts with ease and runs
like an antique Singer sewing machine. The driveline only has been
driven 65k miles in its life. The engine bay is completely restored
and looks great, with attention to detail. A custom wood bed was
completed in 2022 using the same copper paint that is on the truck
to stain the wood. Custom aluminum strips were placed between the
boards. The wood bed is actually removable and reveals a color
matched bed liner. The interior was painted at the same time as the
truck, and all new flooring and seat cover was put on the original
seat. The interior looks like new. The only thing I know the truck
needs is the horn doesn't work and it will need new tires soon. Be
the only one at the car shows with this unique vehicle. It's an
absolute attention getter. There are very few of these trucks made
by people, maybe 20 in the country. Please Note The Following
