more information: (318) 210-0982 Welcome to Street Dreams as we
celebrate our 27th year in classic car and memorabilia sales! If
you appreciate a classic, original, unrestored truck, then this
1968 Chevrolet C10 Fleetside Long Bed is for you! This truck
embodies what made Chevy pickups legendary: dependability,
simplicity, and rugged good looks that still turn heads today!
Originally purchased brand new in Shreveport, Louisiana at
Chevyland Chevrolet, this C10 has had only two owners since new -
with the second caring for it from 1978 to the present day. It's a
true Southern survivor that's never been over-restored or
disguised; what you see is the real deal. Under the hood, it
retains its original 307 cubic inch V8 engine (suffix code WA),
paired with the classic Rochester 2-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed
manual transmission (3 on the tree). It runs with that smooth,
unmistakable small-block Chevy character. Other original-style
features include manual steering and drum brakes all around, giving
it the pure, mechanical feel that modern trucks just can't
replicate. This C10's Service Parts Identification tag confirms
it's an authentic ½-ton Fleetside Long Bed built in St. Louis VIN:
CE148S143861 * C: 2-wheel drive * E: V8 gas engine * 1: ½-ton
chassis * 4: Pickup truck * 8: Model year 1968 * S: St. Louis
assembly plant * 143861: The 43,861st vehicle built at that plant
in 1968 The factory Saddle paint and solid Fleetside body give this
truck an irresistible patina - the kind that can't be replicated
with paint. It's not perfect, and that's exactly why people love
it. Inside, the cabin has been tastefully refreshed with a new
brown vinyl bench seat featuring a Highlander plaid insert, new
floor mat, new door sills, and new weatherstripping throughout.
Even the original window actuators were disassembled, cleaned, and
regreased for smooth operation. Everything works as it should -
lights, blinkers, horn, and a new radio and speaker system add a
touch of modern functionality. The heater core will need
replacement for heat, and this truck was never equipped with
factory A/C. It rides on Mastercraft Courser 31x10.50R15LT tires
mounted to steel wheels with Chevrolet hubcaps, completing that
honest, period-correct look. This 1968 C10 is the definition of
authentic Americana - a straight-shooting survivor with genuine
history and character. Whether you choose to preserve its patina or
make it your next restoration project, this is a truck that stands
tall just the way it is! If you have an interest in a vehicle or
memorabilia, call, email, or see us in person and we will be happy
to help! Street Dreams is a full-service dealership committed to
helping you secure trusted delivery, insurance, and financing
services to complete your classic car purchase. While we're happy
