1968 Chevrolet C-10 Additional Info:
Let me start by saying that i've been around and owned plenty of classics, and this truck stands out from the rest. At first glance it looks rough and beat up but when you get closer to it, you see that the rust is airbrushed and the truck has a patina paint job with semigloss clear. It is a true shortbed C10 from the south and still retains some of its original paint. Floors, bed, and body panels are all SOLID with no rot. The trim, badges, glass and chrome is all brand new, giving the truck a nice polished look. The interior has been completely restored with dakota gauges, push button start, a tilt ididit steering column, and a modern LS harness. The engine is a 5.7 aluminum LS1 motor out of a corvette that has been rebuilt with all new parts. The transmission is a 4L60E that shifts as it should. The front brakes are disc, rear are drum with a 12 bolt rear end. All the brakes are new. The truck sits on air ride suspension and works as it should; pull up to a show slammed or normal ride height. Frame has been properly notched for clearance.This truck runs and drives like a new truck and is a real head turner. If you are looking for a perfectly restored C-10, this is not it, but i promise you that this will turn more heads and impress more people than a normal C-10 with a beautiful paint job and 350 engine. The truck has a lot of character and can be extremely dependable for anyone wanting to take road trips. Please call me if you have any questions, my number is 248-212-2724
