1967 Chevrolet C10

Description

This 1967 Chevy C10 pickup neatly blurs the line between street rod and pickup truck. Lowered and wearing a well-done Hugger Orange paint job, it grabs your attention and doesn't let up until you've seen all the cool little details. If you like your hardware neatly detailed and your look timeless, this is the truck you should be driving.

Admit it, you're digging how this truck looks, aren't you? Is it the bright orange paint? Maybe, but only because it makes the rest of the classic sheetmetal, including the sporty stepside bed do the talking. With the lowered stance, you can see the graceful curve that stretches from the nose to the back of the cab, and the canted front end looks fast, not utilitarian and truck-like. Finish work is quite good, with even gaps and a smooth surface for the Hugger Orange paint to cling to. The flared fenders of the stepside bed always give trucks a high-performance look, but they're also practical, leaving a bed that's devoid of fenderwells. There's a hard-shell tonneau cover that effectively gives you one heck of a big, secure trunk, and it's lined with beautiful wood planks that have been nicely refinished. Other custom tricks include the license plate bracket neatly smoothed into the tailgate, blue-dot taillights (from a Model A Ford), and high-mounted peep mirrors for an old school look.

The handsome orange, black, and tan interior is the ideal complement to the bright bodywork, and like the exterior, takes very few liberties with the original design. Even the seat covers and door panels show the factory-style stitching that gives this truck an upscale feel inside. The custom details abound here, too, including a tilt steering column that's been painted to match the dash so it blends in, a custom leather-wrapped billet steering wheel, and more orange fabric on the glove box lid. For entertainment, an AM/FM/CD stereo head unit was nestled into the dash, feeding speakers in the door panels that were neatly installed so they don't stand out. There's also an under-dash A/C system and a full array of nicely restored factory gauges, including an ultra-rare factory tach in the center. Great rods show vision, and someone definitely had the right idea when they put this one together.

A great-running 350 cubic inch V8 under the hood gives this truck performance to match its looks. Aluminum heads highlight the list of performance upgrades, along with a Holley carburetor on an Edelbrock intake. The ignition system reliably lights the fires and dumps the exhaust through a set of long-tube headers and a custom exhaust system that sounds exactly right for the truck's personality. The engine bay is neatly detailed with Chevy Orange on the block and valve covers, chrome accessories, and satin black inner fenders for the perfect background. The transmission is a 700R4 4-speed automatic, so it's an effortless highway cruiser and the lowered suspension actually rides quite nicely, offering a slightly sportier attitude without giving up truck-like carrying capacity. And those cool Boss Motorsport wheels give it the perfect stance.

If you like the high-profile look, this 1967 Chevy C10 will knock you out with its perfectly simple combination. Call today!
