-20-inch Ridler wheels! -Kooks exhaust! Magnaflow mufflers! This
1971 Chevrolet C10 is the absolute gold standard of the 67-72 Chevy
truck era, having undergone a breathtaking, rotisserie-level
restoration from top to bottom. It is a highly coveted single-cab,
short-bed example finished in a jaw-dropping orange and white
two-tone paint scheme that radiates pure nostalgia. No expense was
spared and no corner was cut during this build; it marries timeless
vintage truck styling with an absolute powerhouse of premium
performance upgrades. This C10 is a meticulous, award-worthy
masterpiece that presents beautifully from any angle and stands
ready to dominate any car show or cruise-in! BODY OVERVIEW: The
sheet metal on this short-bed cruiser is very straight and
spectacularly solid, showcasing exceptional craftsmanship
throughout the entire build. A stylish yet aggressive cowl hood
sets the tone up front, perfectly balanced by gleaming new chrome
bumpers that add a brilliant pop of contrast. Peer into the bed and
you will find a gorgeous, highly polished wood bed floor with
stainless steel strips that looks far too beautiful to ever haul a
load of gravel. The truck achieves a menacing yet sophisticated
stance, sitting proudly on a set of staggered 20-inch chrome Ridler
wheels that fill out the wheel arches beautifully. The
undercarriage is so extraordinarily clean and well-detailed that
you could almost eat your lunch off the frame rails! PAINT
CONDITION OVERVIEW: Draped in a striking orange and white two-tone
finish, the paint job on this C10 is of professional caliber. The
clear coat holds a mirror-like reflection, and it is clear that
this paint job was done slowly by someone who knew what they were
doing. Imperfections on the exterior are kept to an absolute
minimum, meaning you will almost have to look with a magnifying
glass to find any that exist. The entire truck has been thoroughly
polished, giving it a deep, wet-look shine that all but guarantees
it will be the center of attention wherever it goes, making it a
true car show contender. INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Step inside
the cabin, and you are greeted by an interior that seamlessly
blends vintage class with modern execution. The center stage is
taken by a beautifully upholstered bench seat finished in crisp
black vinyl, accented by timeless black and orange houndstooth
cloth inserts that work with the truck's exterior color perfectly.
The dashboard, gauges, and door panels are completely refreshed and
present wonderfully, showing little to no wear. Even the steering
wheel looks fantastic! While the cabin retains its classic 1971
architecture, it has been tastefully modernized with a retro-modern
stereo that gives you modern audio capability without ruining the
period-correct aesthetic of the dashboard. Additionally, a
factory-style tachometer is front and center in the gauge cluster;
a subtle reminder that this ain't your grandpa's C10! MECHANICAL
OVERVIEW: Under the cowl hood lies a beautifully detailed V8 engine
bay packed with high-end performance hardware. The 400ci small
block is outfitted with an Edelbrock intake manifold, Edelbrock
Performer cylinder heads, a high-performance Holley XP carburetor,
and a QuickFuel fuel pump. Spark is handled by an MSD ignition
system, while premium Kooks headers scavenge the exhaust gases into
a dual exhaust system fitted with Magnaflow mufflers for an
absolutely intoxicating V8 rumble! An oversized aluminum radiator
keeps the whole operation running cool, and the entire truck drives
like a dream thanks to modern power steering, power brakes, and an
upgrade to front disc brakes for confidence-inspiring stopping
power. Last but not least, this C10 is fitted with a 700R4
transmission, meaning you have enough gears to comfortable cruise
at highway speeds as needed! WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: You
will love the absolutely effortless driveability that this truck
brings to the table. Thanks to the power steering, power brakes,
and upgraded front disc brakes, piloting this 55-year-old truck
feels incredibly civilized in modern traffic. The engine sounds
incredible through the Magnaflow mufflers and pulls hard, with
fantasy-inducing throttle response, while the combination of the
orange-and-white paint, houndstooth interior, and gleaming chrome
Ridler wheels ensures you will be completely overwhelmed by waves,
thumbs-up, and compliments at every traffic light. WHAT YOU MIGHT
HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: If you are looking for a beat-up shop truck
that you can carelessly throw muddy tools and car parts into the
bed of, you will absolutely hate this C10, full stop. The wood bed
floor and flawless two-tone paint are so pristine that parking it
anywhere near a shopping cart return or driving it through a rain
shower will likely induce a mild panic attack. Last but not least,
one notable upgrade this truck is missing is A/C. It's nothing a
Vintage Air kit wouldn't fix, but for the time being, it's going to
be hot! DOES IT NEED ANYTHING? This Chevrolet C10 is a beautiful
classic that is ready to rock as-is. Particular buyers should note
that the tires are 10 years old, the horn and blower motor does not
work, and although the wipers work the arms are not installed or
included. WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR? This truck is
tailor-made for the uncompromising collector or high-end enthusiast
who wants quality and is willing to pay for it. It appeals to the
buyer who loves the iconic styling of the '67-'72 generation
Chevrolets but demands the safety and convenience of modern
performance engineering. If you are looking for a finished truck,
but don't want to pay the big restoration bills, this is the C10
for you! Contact Rare Rides Company at 980-306-8100 or
