Sometimes the best vintage car is really a truck. This well-finished 1970 Chevrolet C10 has the right look, V8 power, and upgrades (including A/C interior) to be an attention-grabbing all-around cruiser. Only the right truck can wear such a bold shade of blue. For a color like this to be on a pickup, the body needs to be as straight as this one, because it's a confidence hue that draws attention with its electricity. It has the kind... of appearance that makes for a rare find on vehicles that were intended as workhorses. The shiny bumpers, delicate trim, artful grille, and all of the other brightwork gives this C10 an upscale look. Plus, the white roof has an extra hint of premium with its two-tone appearance. And speaking of premium, the durable outdoor carpeting that's on top of the even more durable Rhino-lined bed is a unique touch that keeps even the cargo area fashionable. But one of our absolute favorite pieces is the wheel and tire package. The 20-inch alloys have a true modern look, but the polished presentation and blue-line tires fit with this truck's color and trim so well that you just know you're looking at a very thoughtfully built pickup. Inside the sea of blue continues. The exterior color is on all the metal pieces, and now it's joined by a lighter blue on the door panels, carpeting, and seats. In fact, that blue vinyl is that terrific metallic color that reminds us of the best classic American vehicles. You hardly see it anymore, but it feels fresh from investment in here. And while this one has a great retro style - right down to the steering wheel and the gauges - it also has the right upgrades. An AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input means you can listen to the most modern tunes in this very vintage ride. And R134a air conditioning keeps you cool over the long haul. You can see more signs of a quality investment under the hood. Smooth inner fenders, a painted firewall, and an overall tidy setup says someone took the time to get this one right. Chevy's trusty 350 cubic-inch V8 has been upgraded with a Holley four-barrel carburetor and an Edelbrock intake. That means good power and a sweet rumble from the dual exhaust. Out on the road, you have the right features, like a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes. And while you're checking out the desirable trailing arm rear suspension, don't forget to notice how tidy everything is under there, too. A slick classic truck already finished with all the right features - that's why you love this C10. So don't let it slip away, call today!
