Chevrolet C-10 1969 Description

You want fresh? You've got it with this 1969 Chevy C10 pickup. With a paint job that still smells wet and a neatly finished interior, they don't come much cleaner than this. High-visibility V8 fun is still within reach, even as these trucks skyrocket in popularity.Bright Turquoise looks great on anything from this period, especially something with a bit of old-school charm like this C10 pickup. The investment in the sheetmetal has to be considerable given how spectacular the results look, and the dedication that put this truck together shows in every single square inch of paint that went onto its flanks. And thanks to the miracle of modern paints, it'll probably look this good for decades with just a modicum of effort on your part. The vivid turquoise paint is so attention-grabbing that they might overlook the other neat touches, including the lowered stance, cool wheels, and white painted hardtop. Add in a bunch of brightly polished stainless steel trim, and a bed with a spray-in bedliner for the rough stuff, and, well, you have one heck of a truck.The flashback to the '60s continues inside with black and white houndstooth upholstery provides a great look that suits the sporting pickup just fine. The original bench is still firm and comfortable, and thanks to professional workmanship, it looks right at home in the vintage pickup's driver's compartment. Black door panels and new black carpets add to the upscale vibe and both help control noise and heat, so this remains an eminently comfortable vehicle for driving around town, especially with the under-dash A/C. The steering wheel is a modern billet piece with a Chevy Bowtie emblem, so you'll mistake it for a stock wheel at first. The gauges are original and they include a rather rare factory tachometer in the center. A Sony Xplode AM/FM/CD stereo head unit snuggles into the original dash and sounds great thanks to 40 years of entertainment technology improvements and a set of speakers built into the doors. Looking for a truck you can drive cross-country without complaint? You've just found it.Part of that driving pleasure comes from the 350 cubic inch V8 fitted between the fenders and dressed almost like it would have been when it was new. Chrome pieces like the open-element air cleaner and valve covers dress it up and there's recent Chevy Orange paint on the block. Power steering and power brakes are welcome additions to the roster and a TH350 3-speed automatic transmission is rugged enough for just about anything you can come up with in this truck. A heavy-duty 12-bolt rear end hangs on trailing arms and lowering springs, making these C10s some of the best-riding vintage pickup trucks you can own. There's also a dual exhaust system with glasspack-style mufflers and chrome tips poking out from behind the rear wheels, adding to the custom look. Heck, there's even a fat sway bar up front which gives this lowered truck impressive handling for its size and age. Cool 18-inch Rally-style wheels and staggered 255/55/18 front and 255/60/18 rear performance radials give it exactly the right stance.A very cool pickup with a ton of eyeball appeal and a smooth-running small block. There's a lot more than the asking price wrapped up in this restoration, making this bright turquoise C10 somewhat of a bargain. Call today!
