1968 Chevy C-10 Stepside SWB Hot Rod Street Truck RestoMod

1968 Chevrolet C-10 SWB Stepside Description

Located in Melbourne, L. The 67-72 Chevrolet C-10 trucks are the most sought after years. The short wheelbase step-sides are the most unique and desirable and are tough to find in good shape. I shipped this truck from Bakersfield, A so I could start with a rust-free example. Many catalogs are available wth restoration and new & improved parts. Online forums have tons of info and advice. This 1/2 ton truck is in great shape...you will get a LOT of attention with thumbs up at stop lights, eople stopping you to ask about it, nd a TON of complements wherever you go. Everyone has a story about a family member that had an old pickup.

This is a Hot Rod truck that I have put a ton of money and time into in order to make it a reliable and comfortable daily driver. The body is old but the underside, otor and transmission have been replaced and updated. The ride is lowered and smooth, have re-done it all from the previous owner. Frame is original, o airbags or C-sections on the frame. Handles like a car, ides better than new. The AC is ice cold. A new 4 speaker stereo, ower steering, ower disc brakes, ew suspension, nd an automatic transmission make this an easy truck for even your wife or daughter to drive.
Need a shop truck or a rolling advertisement? Just put some lettering or vinyl stickers on this to draw attention to your business. You WILL get noticed.
I'm constantly given thumbs up, topped to question me about it, nd many people want to take pictures with it. Recently, y wife was stopped 4 times getting gas just a mile and a half away!
I've sorted this truck out and made it reliable and comfortable as a daily driver.
*** I have more that $28,000 and a LOT of time invested since purchase in June 2015 ***
Don't kid yourself on the cost of building a 48 year old truck into a reliable daily driver. Unless you find a unicorn, here is lots to be sorted out...this one has been gone thru It is not perfect, ut it will draw a crowd no matter where you stop. Nothing but compliments and stories.
