classic vintage chrome chevy c10 restomod 5.3 liter v8 auto transmission
1968 Chevrolet C-10 Restomod Description
Patina on the outside and a fuel-injected modern V8 under the hood - oh yeah, this 1968 Chevrolet C10 Restomod really does strike the best balance for exactly what you want tin a cool and powerful classic pickup.
This is a patina'd body, which is always going to get you attention and conversations wherever you go. Nicely weathered over good sheetmetal, this one looks like it was just forgotten on a back lot at a Georgia shop (in fact, this is believed to be a Georgia truck all its life.) But you see its true charm in the 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels with a nice aggressive stance on the lowered suspension. It tells you this is a secretly rewarding pickup. After all, the full-length trim is complete, the headlights are clear, and the bumpers are bright. So like a proper patina truck, there's more there than meets the eye.
The black continues inside and now it's joined by a bold red. All the right vintage elements are in place, and there are also plenty of subtle upgrades. For example, the seat has the same intricate texture that came on the best C10s back in the day, but this one feels fresh, because the cover is actually new. The carpeting and dash pad also have the right feeling of a fresh investment. While the painted black elements have a glossy feel, this one intentionally has some wear on the door panels to coordinate with the patina style of the exterior. You might also notice some other nice additions to make this an ideal cruiser, including a correct-style tach and a three-spoke Chevy sports steering wheel.
Under the hood is the real treat, because the fuel-injected 5.3-liter Voterc V8 is the kind of mix of power and usability you'd even want in a brand-new pickup. It fires up with the ease of a true FI machine, and so it's ways ready to hit the road. Plus, the 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission is the ideal balance for both stout performance and overdrive cruising. This feeds a 12-bolt 3.73 Positraction rear end. So it's exactly what you want for a great driving pickup. The sought-after trailing arm rear suspension combines with upgrades like power steering and power brakes with front discs to create a solid all-around driver.
This is a nice mix of classic southern patina and modern power. So at a price like this, you know it's a deal that will be moving fast. Call today!!!
