Reluctantly available for sale due to limited indoor storage is my 1969 Chevrolet C10. This is a very desirable short-bed Custom/10 fitted at the factory with the 350 cubic inch V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. At some time during prior ownership a sliding rear window was fitted in place of the standard fixed item, although no cutting was involved and is reversible if desired. This is a 100% original paint truck.
The outer body paint surfaces, excluding the bed interior, have been clayed, polished, and coated in the finest carnauba wax to bring back a stunning shine to the paint. There are some areas where the paint is wearing thin, but this in no way detracts from the overall beauty of this truck. Most notably the top of both driver and passenger doors have worn through the factory applied yellow paint where ones arms would rest while driving with the windows down.
The interior features stunning original paint on the dash, the original and working OEM radio, and the original rubber floor mat is in excellent condition. The seat has been professionally recovered under prior ownership.
Modifications are limited to the truck being professionally lowered with a Classic Enterprises 4/6 drop kit featuring KYB front and rear shocks, a shock mount relocator kit, super bar track kit, and welded c-notch kit. Additionally, the stock wheels have been replaced with Wheel Vintiques smoothie 15x6 front and 15x8 rear wheels fitted with BF Goodrich 205 front and 275 rear tires.
This C10 starts immediately from cold, runs strong and smooth, and handles corners with ease. It is in need of nothing, and has received a full fluid service and tune-up in the past 500 miles. Mileage is an original and low 56,262 at the time of writing. This is without doubt the nicest original C10 I have come across, and I would not be selling it if I had additional room for storage. It is being sold with the original build sheet, owners manual, a clean and clear CA Title in my name, with registration paid through 2020, and is registered to its original California black commercial license plates. You could spend years, as I did, looking for an original short-bed 4-speed manual C10 as nice as this one.
