Vehicle Description
We've had a lot of Chevy pickups come through our showroom, but few
have approached the incredible smoothness of this 1967 Chevrolet
C10 CST. From the sizzling red paint to the spectacular bed floor
to the smooth-running small block V8, it delivers show-winning good
looks and offers performance and comfort for those who love to
drive.
You already know from the price that this truck is something
special. There's not a panel on it that hasn't been smoothed,
molded, or altered in some way, yet it's still 100% recognizable as
one of Chevy's finest. Deleting most of the trim and emblems
certainly helps achieve a slick look, but it's that Torch Red paint
that seals the deal. Lots of time and effort went into getting all
the bodywork smooth, and it shows, with great gaps and a shiny
final finish that makes this truck show-worthy in every way. The
front bumper was smoothed and tucked in close to the body, then
treated to show-quality chrome plating. The same goes for the rear
bumper, which hangs under a stock tailgate that fits better than
any other we've seen. And yes, the bed floor is an absolute work of
art. We realize it's not for hauling anymore, but the workmanship
is impressive and we guarantee it's the one thing that everyone
will stop to admire.
The interior is every bit as well finished as the bodywork. A
custom bench seat offers beautifully stitched leather seat covers
that update the C10's formerly bare-bones interior. The door panels
are likewise unique works of art that incorporate beautiful
stitching with artistic flourishes like the amorphous arm rests and
slashing chrome trim. This Chevy's original instrument panel
remains intact, but it's encased in a billet panel and the gauges
are now big, bold Dolphin dials framed by a custom billet steering
wheel on a tilt column. The padded portion of the dash is
upholstered to match the seat, and tan carpets on the floors help
control noise and heat for comfortable cruising. Thanks to a
powerful A/C system you don't have to worry about long highway
drives in warm weather, and a trick AM/FM stereo system fits in the
original slot and powers a CD changer hidden out of sight.
Reliable power comes from a 350 cubic inch Chevy V8 tied to a TH350
3-speed automatic transmission, making for one of the most
bulletproof powertrains in existence. There's nothing radical going
on under the hood because getting there is more important than
reinventing the wheel, but it is very nicely kitted out with tons
of chrome dress-up pieces. Vortec heads on a '73 block form the
foundation, and it's got an Edelbrock carburetor and intake, both
of which have been chromed and polished. Long-tube headers feed a
custom Flowmaster dual exhaust system with twin tips peeking out
from under the rear bumper. The firewall and inner fenders are as
nicely finished as the rest of the body, so you won't think twice
about lifting the hood at a show and it'll probably earn you more
than a few big trophies. The suspension has been lowered using
tubular A-arms, drop spindles, and lowering springs, and big Budnik
wheels fill the wheel wells using giant 275/40/20 performance
radials.
Wild yet functional, this pickup embodies vastly more work than
your average cruise night special. There's surely vastly more than
the asking price tied up in it, so if you like the look you're
going to love the way it drives. Call today!
