Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this Custom-Patina
1968 Chevrolet C-10. Chevy C-10s are are the darlings of the custom
truck market and highly desirable, ESPECIALLY short beds. This 68
C-10 is a cool patina custom, with a modern 5.3L LS based V8 and
matching 4L80 transmission. The truck sits on 20" American racing
wheels with 4 wheel disc brakes. The exterior wears a unique
artificially aged coat of orange and white two tone with fake rust
and paint fade for character. Inside is a lovely custom leather
wrapped interior with a two-tone dark saddle and light tan seats.
The dash is painted to match with a leather top pad and new gauges
and chrome steering column. Comfort is ensured with cold AC and
warm heat and AM/FM radio with CD player and power brakes and
steering. Under the hood you'll find the afore mentioned 5.3L V8
has been dressed to the nines with polished valve covers, and
matching serpentine accessory drive system. The fuel injection
system and intake plenum are polished as well as the air cleaner.
The entire engine bay was painted in fresh black paint and offer a
great contrast to polished engine and accessories. The underside of
this cool C-10 belies the patina look of the exterior, with no
signs of rot or rust. Additionally, when you look around, you'll
notice a new stainless exhaust system and upgrades to the bushings
and suspension. Overall, this is a cool resto mod C-10 that's ready
for daily duty or will turn heads at the local car shows! A nice
entry into the classic car world. It's got all the fun with none of
the pain of a rusty old truck!
