Vehicle Description
1967 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Pickup
The 1967 Chevrolet sales brochure, (aka dealer catalog), for their
pickup trucks is as much a work of art as the trucks are a study in
design, simplicity, and utility. There are no photographs in the
catalog, only full color renderings, paintings really, of the
various pickup models and their specifications. You've got a blue
Fleetside at the feed and grain store, a Fleetwood custom in an
equestrian setting, a Stepside on the streets of San Francisco with
a bed full of newspapers, and a four wheel drive version on some
mountain terrain. If we were to repaint the brochure today, these
trucks would surely be set in car shows, cruise ins, and even Cars
and Coffee!
For consignment, a 1967 C10 short bed pickup, showing 241 miles
which are not actual. This truck has been modded inside and out and
every part has received attention on its journey to become quite
the looker and booker. You won't find any body rust either as all
the body panels are new. The original sales brochure may have been
a work of artistic literature, but this truck is a rolling piece of
art.
Exterior
The striking two tone design of this truck is delineated not only
by contrasting tones of Medium Blue Metallic and White, but by the
red line that borders the white which is reserved for part of the
hood and cab. Modern and smoke LED lights take the place of the
round sealed beams and diodes are employed on much of the exterior
lighting as well. The open grille is rimmed in polished trim,
matching the headlight bezels and the red bowtie complements our
red border stripe, the Brembo calipers, and the smooth tail lights
in back, where we also find a smooth roll pan in place of a bumper.
15-inch chrome Weld wheels live out back and are deeper than the
17-inch versions in front, and things are evened out by the
staggered tire sizes, all with an early 2024 date code. Beautiful
oak planks alternate with stainless braces in the bed and presents
in show condition. One little chip in the paint is the only
imperfection we perceive on the exterior.
Interior
White stitched door panels are sandwiched between painted blue
metal borders on the doors in fine condition while ivory leather
bucket seats with hefty padding and bolstering occupy the interior.
A chrome plated panel houses the instrument cluster with clear,
white-faced gauges under an ivory dash pad. For handles, the driver
enjoys a grippy 3 spoke steering wheel and a Hurst shifter in the
center console, wrapped in more of that ivory leather. An AM/FM
radio with touchscreen illuminates the center stack, already
glowing with a mirror-like plating framing the screen. Black loop
carpet covers the floor cleanly and up above, a stitched leather
headliner adds texture but probably not a lot of sound deadening,
as we'll learn.
Drivetrain
Pop the blue and white hood to find a perfectly painted and
polished monster powerplant, 518ci according to your consignor, and
that's no fish tale. The block and intake are masterfully painted
to match the exterior. The V8 has Speedmaster cylinder heads, a
Scat crank, H-beam rods, Milodon valves, and fuel is delivered
through a Holley Super Sniper Stealth EFI system. A TH400 3-speed
automatic transmission is behind the beast and transfers power to a
Ford 9" in back with 3.70 gears. Wilwood Hydroboost power disc
brakes are mounted on front and back.
Undercarriage
Other than a touch of road dirt and occasional surface rust, the
underside is very clean and dry. Dual exhaust runs from headers to
stainless steel mufflers, then find their way out the sides via
dual tip, in front of each rear wheel. Linkage, bushings, and brake
components are all clean. Suspension consists of coil overs in
front and trailing arms, coil overs, and a panhard bar out
back.
Drive-Ability
Deck the halls with boughs of Holley! The sniper system means
instant fuel plus its tunable and the truck will come with a tablet
for doing so. It also comes with a remote for exhaust cut-outs, but
we'll feed the gases through the normal route which on its own
delivers a healthy growl. The fat tires provide great handling both
for straight tracking and turn ins, and there is obvious power
underfoot. Other than the horn, all other functions including
lights, gauges, and brakes, work as they should. While Classic Auto
Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of
our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working
at the time of your purchase.
To borrow a line from GMC, the only thing you'll be hauling in this
beauty is ass! Who doesn't love an engine bay that's as clean as
the exterior? Yes, you'll be detailing the engine between shows,
but at this point, a simple dust rag will do the trick. This is a
very nice build with a potent engine and some serious components
wrapped up in a blue and white package tied with a red
bow(tie).
