1967 Chevrolet C10

Description

A nice clean look, sensible upgrades, and plenty of horsepower make this 1967 Chevrolet C10 pickup a sure-fire winner. The engine is a small block Chevy V8, it's the desirable regular cab/short bed configuration, and everybody loves a black truck.

Repainted about five years ago, this one's holding up quite nicely. Not perfect, not a trailer queen, but a shiny black truck that looks menacing on the road and shows well at the local cruise night. The late '60s Chevys are red hot right now, and we don't seem to be able to keep them in stock, making this black short bed hauler a great opportunity. Panel fit and the finish quality are very good overall, with only a few signs of use and age which are to be expected. It hasn't been modified or treated to garish stripes or other add-ons, letting the squared-off Chevy sheetmetal simply look its best, just the way the GM designers intended. A few chrome bits sparkle against the inky black paint, with good bumpers, shiny stainless window surrounds, and a cool red Bowtie emblem on each front fender. Big, bold letters on the tailgate are a traditional pickup look and the bed itself is so nicely finished that you'll probably think twice before throwing a load of lumber back there. Don't worry, it won't mind!

The interior is attractive and handsomely tailored with gray cloth inserts on the bench seat and the rest dressed in simple black. A wood-rimmed wheel, perhaps borrowed from a Camaro, adds some natural warmth to the interior, but for the most part it remains pretty stock. Heavy-duty floor coverings mean that you can still use it as a truck if you choose, but things like the under-dash A/C system and an AM/FM/CD stereo system are there for more relaxing drives. The original gauges are surrounded by bright chrome bezels that are in great condition and the gauges themselves have clear markings and only minor signs of age. Overall, this is probably a great place to spend some time and it's still functional enough to double as a truck on weekends if you need it.

The engine is a strong-running 327 cubic inch mill that looks a bit like it was borrowed from an early Z/28, thanks to a set of finned valve covers. Other upgrades include a big Holley 4-barrel carburetor, Mallory ignition system, and an oversized radiator up front. Cast iron exhaust manifolds control noise and heat better than headers and the dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers still sounds awesome. It's clean and bright under the hood, with bright Chevy Orange paint on the block, new hoses, belts, and wiring, plus a fresh dual master cylinder for the power brakes. Underneath, there's a TH400 3-speed automatic and a 12-bolt rear end, both heavy-duty enough to make this truck unafraid of the big jobs. It still sits on its original suspension, including coil springs in back that ride rather well. Period-style Torque Thrust wheels with spinners and 225/75/15 blackwall radials complete the look.

A nicely sorted truck with V8 power, a great look, and plenty of functionality to make it a favorite regardless of what you're doing. Call today!
