1968 Chevrolet C10 Fleetside Long Bed Small Block V8, Two-Tone
Turquoise and White, 45,348 Miles Why This Car Is Special The 1968
Chevrolet C10 sits at the center of what collectors call the Action
Line generation the truck body style Chevrolet introduced for 1967
that completely changed what a pickup could look like. Gone was the
cab-forward design of the earlier Task Force trucks. In its place
was a wider, lower, more car-like cab with a curved windshield,
concealed running boards on the Fleetside models, and a level of
interior refinement that American truck buyers had never seen
before. The 19671972 generation C10 is now one of the most widely
collected trucks in the country, and the 1968 model year holds a
particular appeal because it carries the clean first-year styling
without the minor trim revisions that arrived later in the
generation. This specific truck is a two-wheel-drive C10, confirmed
by the VIN position that identifies it as a conventional
two-wheel-drive half-ton model the most popular configuration in
the lineup. It wears a turquoise and white two-tone finish, one of
the more visually distinctive color combinations available from
Chevrolet during this period, with white applied to the cab roof
and upper body and turquoise covering the lower body and bed. The
odometer reads 45,348 miles. The undercarriage photos confirm this
truck has been well preserved the frame, suspension components, and
floor pan have all been coated and are in solid condition with no
significant rot or patch work visible. For a buyer who wants an
honest, driver-quality 1968 Chevrolet C10 with a small block V8, a
three-speed manual, and a color combination that photographs well
from across a parking lot, this truck checks every box without the
cost of a full frame-off restoration. Features List - Small Block

sits a Chevrolet small block V8, painted the correct Chevrolet
engine orange, with a single-barrel air cleaner and period-correct
presentation throughout the engine bay. The inner fenders,
firewall, and hood liner are all clean and show no evidence of
significant fluid leaks or heat damage. The small block family of
engines needs little introduction it is one of the most produced
and best-supported engine families in automotive history, with
parts availability that remains excellent to this day. Paired with
a three-speed manual transmission operated via a column-mounted
shifter, this drivetrain is about as simple and serviceable as it
gets. The 1968 C10 used a front independent coil spring suspension
a significant engineering departure from the solid front axle that
had been standard on Chevrolet trucks for decades prior. This
setup, introduced with the 1963 C10, gave the half-ton truck
genuinely better ride quality than most of its competitors and is a
key reason the 19671972 generation is still considered pleasant to
drive on modern roads. The undercarriage photos show clean,
well-coated front control arms, coil springs, and rear leaf
springs. The rear axle housing is solid with no visible rust
through the coating. The single exhaust runs cleanly from front to
rear with a muffler that shows normal surface patina but no rot.
Brakes are drum all around, as was standard for the C10 in 1968.
The speedometer shows 45,348 miles. Whether those are original
miles or a later rollover is not something we can certify, but the
overall condition of the truck particularly the undercarriage and
the interior is consistent with a truck that has not been drive
