Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this
1969 Chevrolet C10, finished in Black over a matching Black leather
interior. This extensively customized pickup combines Chevrolet's
recognizable second-generation C10 styling with a 6.0-liter LS2 V8,
Corvette-based suspension components, and a custom chassis
developed by Corvette Correction.
Under the hood is a 6.0-liter LS2 V8 paired with a GM 4L65E 4-speed
automatic transmission. According to the accompanying build
documentation, the LS2 was rebuilt in 2019 with a small high-lift
camshaft and is listed at 405 horsepower. The engine features a GM
wiring harness and custom computer programming, along with a chrome
front accessory drive system. Additional equipment includes a PRC
radiator, a Rick's Hot Rod fuel tank, stainless-steel fuel lines,
and a custom exhaust system featuring MagnaFlow mufflers and
ceramic-coated exhaust manifolds.
One of the standout features of this C10 is its custom chassis
built by Corvette Correction. The accompanying documentation
identifies the company's Package #2, incorporating suspension
components from a 1994 Corvette at the front and a 1995 Corvette at
the rear, along with a Dana 36 rear differential featuring 3.07
gears. This arrangement replaces the original C10 chassis and
suspension configuration with components derived from Chevrolet's
fourth-generation Corvette.
The steering and braking systems have also received considerable
attention. Rack-and-pinion steering replaces the original steering
arrangement, while the braking system includes Corvette-based disc
brake components, an ABS Power Brakes master cylinder and booster,
and stainless-steel brake lines and hoses from Classic Tube. Monroe
Sensa-Trac shocks are fitted at both ends, with the documentation
identifying part numbers 5938 for the front and 5893 for the
rear.
The truck rides on EVOD aluminum wheels with a staggered
arrangement measuring 18x8 in front and 18x10 at the rear. These
wheels complement the Black exterior and the truck's custom
appearance.
The exterior retains the recognizable styling of Chevrolet's 1969
C10, including its long hood, squared-off cab, and distinctive body
lines. The accompanying build documentation identifies replacement
doors, fenders, bed components, and chrome trim sourced through LMC
Truck. Its Black finish, aluminum wheels, and classic pickup
proportions provide a contrast to the modern drivetrain and
suspension components underneath.
Inside, the Black leather interior incorporates several modern
upgrades. Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation replaces the
traditional gauge arrangement, while an Ididit steering column adds
updated steering controls. A Vintage Air Gen 5 climate control
system provides air conditioning, and power windows add
convenience. The truck also features an aftermarket radio and
speaker system, along with an American Autowire chassis wiring
system.
Additional mechanical details documented with the build include a
custom driveshaft supplied by Seguin Drive Line, updated windshield
and wiper components, and a GM electronic engine management system
with programming handled by Hot Rod Therapy. These components are
part of the extensive work performed to integrate the LS2
drivetrain and Corvette-based chassis with the classic Chevrolet
pickup body.
The 1969 Chevrolet C10 belongs to the second generation of
Chevrolet's C/K truck lineup, commonly known as the Action Line
generation. Introduced for 1967, these trucks featured revised
exterior styling, a wider cab, and an increased emphasis on
passenger comfort. This example takes that recognizable design in a
different direction through its LS2 drivetrain, custom chassis, and
Corvette suspension components.
