1970 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck

Description

A perfect blend of timeless style and proven mechanicals, this handsome C10 is a first-rate exercise in classic, old school utility and modern, resto-mod swagger. And if you're looking for a super cool cruiser that can be enjoyed for years to come, it's the sinister street rod of your dreams!

USA-1

When it comes to collector cars, few vehicles have aged better than late '60s and early '70s Chevrolets. And that goes double for something as undeniably immutable as a storied Action Line pickup. This striking C10 is a solid farm soldier that's been subjected to a detailed, ground-up restoration. Paint is delightfully simple, with glossy clear sealing rich black base. And subtle detailing highlights a roster of choice upgrades. Those upgrades begin with a smoothed, Satin Black bumper, which frames a Satin Black grille that's finished with billet bars and modern headlights. At the edges of that grille, a sleek profile floats billet mirrors, billet handles and subtle LS3 banners between bright boom tubes and filled marker lamps. Those mirrors reflect a smoked, flush-fit greenhouse, which slides one-piece side glass behind polished wipers and a polished cowl screen. A clean bed centers a polished fuel filler betweem filled stake pockets. And at the back of the truck, a second smoothed, Satin Black bumper contrasts billet, LED taillights.

LS NATION

Donated by Pontiac's storied G8 GXP, this resto-mod's 415 horsepower LS3 is excitingly athletic and appropriately rambunctious! At the front of the engine, custom cold air plumbing funnels wind into a composite intake by way of a factory throttle body. Under that $1,000 of tubing, a polished March serpentine drive spins modern power steering amid a polished alternator and a polished AC compressor. At the sides of those ancillaries, short MSD Super Conductor plug wires split stainless headers and lovingly massaged fuel rail covers. In front of those covers, a “CHEVROLET” branded core support teams a bright aluminum radiator with big electric puller fans. Everything communicates well thanks to a Speartech ECM, a Speartech TCM and quality tuning by Lakewood, New Jersey's Performance Systems Integration. And details like standalone wiring, a familiar Holley oil pan, a muted brake booster and billet Eddie Motorsports hood supports ensure first-class performance and presentation.

OPTIMIZED FOR ENJOYMENT

Bottom-side, a smooth 6L80 6-speed, sourced from the same GXP as the engine, twists torque to a dressed and vented 12-bolt that's finished with a quality Eaton posi. That proven powertrain pushes a tough factory chassis that's been upgraded with RideTech StrongArm control arms, RideTech StrongArm trailing arms, a beefy RideTech MuscleBar sway bar and adjustable RideTech air bags. Modern power steering makes parking easy and turns a cinch. Stops come courtesy of four power-assisted calipers, which squeeze four drilled and slotted rotors. The aforementioned headers feed rowdy Flowmaster mufflers. A 600 horsepower fuel pump drains an alloy Tanks Inc. tank. And at the edges of the floor, 18-inch Rally replicas spin traditional stainless trim inside 245/50 Goodyear Eagles and 275/45 Goodyear Eagles.

GLOWING FROM WITHIN

Installed by JB Auto Upholstery of Raleigh, North Carolina, the truck's comfortable leather cockpit serves as a warm contrast to an otherwise stoic demeanor. Power-operated buckets frame a tall console that's centered on a refashioned G8 GXP shifter. A leather-wrapped dash hangs clean Dakota Digital VHX telemetry next to modern Kenwood audio and familiar Vintage Air climate control. Plush carpet flows to bowtie-branded sills, which reflect custom side panels that split big kick speakers, remote-controlled door locks and power-operated windows. A first-generation Silverado roof console surfs a custom headliner. And the driver spins a billet, wood-rimmed steering wheel around a modern, tilting column.

If you're looking for a cool classic that mixes a great restoration with unmatched style and instant fun, check out this sweet Chevy! It's well-restored. It features a proven GM drivetrain.
