1977 Chevrolet C10

Description

The bright smooth paint makes this 1977 Chevrolet C10 instantly distinctive. And when you see the comfy interior, overdrive transmission, and fuel-injected V8 upgrade, you can really see how an award-worthy truck like this is also a terrific all-around cruiser.

The blue paint is a premium PPG color with a metallic element. The smooth luster gives the truck's famous square body beefy lines some added sophistication. It has a cool cruiser style with all the trim deleted and the tailgate smoothened to give this an extra-sleek appearance. The billet-style grille, crystal clear upgraded headlights, bright chrome bumpers, and clean liner paint in the bed are all about showing off a detailed style. And those polished 20-inch Eagle Alloy wheels add to both the shine and powerful stance of this pickup. The whole truck has been a long-term passion project for the consignor, and so it has been updated while it was also being enjoyed. What that means is an impressive style everywhere - right down to the shining undercarriage - but not so perfect that we'd shy away from hitting the Power Tour.

The thoughtful style continues inside. The exterior's blue returns on the metal parts of the dash and door panels for a uniform look, and a two-tone gray is the main color theme. The bench is an updated unit that's finished in clean vinyl with comfy tweed inserts. The door panels, headliner, carpeting, and dash all have an inviting presentation with a coordinated style. Plus, you have some nice extras, like tinted glass, billet door handles, and an aux cord that lets you hook your iPod/iPhone into the Memphis Audio stereo system behind the seat. There are even the beginning provisions for air conditioning (you have the compressor mounted but you will need more components and lines run.) And a really cool detail is the power locks on the key fob are also a kill switch because this classic C10 now has a push-button ignition. And you know this is ready to be a cruiser with the upgraded sports steering wheel, a tilt column, and Dakota Digital gauges that have a cool blue glow that goes with this truck's color theme.

The engine bay has the clean look you'll love. The exterior metallic blue returns, and it has such a smooth and clean style that it helps reflect the shine of the polished components. This has the look of a classic Chevy powerhouse, but it's actually a younger 5.7-liter V8 borrowed from a late 1990s Silverado. So you get some worthwhile upgrades, like a serpentine belt system and fuel injection. But we also like how this keeps the right classic truck rumble thanks to the addition of Hedman headers and Flowmaster mufflers on the dual exhaust. A Positraction rear end, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive make for an all-around easy cruising custom.

The sale comes complete with restoration photos and build receipts. We know you'll appreciate the added time and care it takes when a truck is a passion project. Don't miss out, call today!
