Description:

1972 Chevrolet C-10

Looking for a truck you can hop in, turn the key and go highway cruising or go out to dinner in? This is that truck. Take it for a cruise around town and get thumbs up from people in traffic and gearheads that appreciate what’s been done to the truck.

This is an older restored 1972 Chevy C10 long bed, 2wd with aftermarket performance motor and transmission. It is a factory power steering truck and factory AC, as verified by matching glove-box RPO codes, but firewall has been shaved and A/C or heat isn't installed. Research of RPO codes show that truck was manufactured at GM's Atlanta plant. Stayed in the south until I purchased it in August 2015. It was originally a 350ci motor and transmission. The factory exterior was a green color with matching green plaid interior. Current color is a satin black, as that what the previous owners painted it. Mainly rust free. There are a couple rust bubbles in bottom of doors. It's not a custom $10k paint job. It does have some scratches mostly on tailgate and a few on hood. I also have some parts to convert rear brakes form factory drums to disc. Truck currently has front discs installed.
