1972 Chevrolet C-10 Cheyenne Restomod Description
A restomod is all about taking something vintage and giving it the best upgrades, and this 1972 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne Restomod really lives up to that feeling. The paint is original and heading towards patina, and you even have a rare bucket seat interior. But there was also a ton invested new in performance and comfort, including an upgraded suspension, overdrive transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, an A/C interior, and a mighty fuel-injected 430hp stroker V8.
The first glance at the Hugger Orange paint will have people assume you're driving a survivor. And they'll be right...sorta. This is the original application of the iconic Chevy color, and it has the right amount of fade that still looks bold while still one step away from having a true patina look. So it wears its originality with pride. But this is far more than just a history lesson. The lowered stance and 20-inch Ridler alloys show someone has made a nice investment in giving this survivor some street machine attitude. You see more of it on the new bumpers, new grille, and full LED lighting package. The black tonneau cover looks good combined with the new black trim, and beneath it, the bed has been done in liner paint in case you still want to get down to real truck duty.
Inside is an original feature that's sure to draw some attention. After all, truck people know how rare it is to have a factory bucket seat interior with center console in-between. And this one has a great original feel, right down to the premium Cheyenne textured insert on the seat and matching door panels. More than just vintage there was a solid investment here to make this one even more comfortable. It includes modern R134a air conditioning, an AM/FM/CD stereo with Bluetooth, and modern Dynamat insulation. As a bucket seat truck you want a nice driving experience. So they gave you great features like Chevy's sports steering wheel mounted on a tilt column, power steering, full gauge package w/tach, and a Lokar floor shifter.
