1972 CHEVROLET C10

OVERVIEW

This restored 1972 Chevrolet C10 is powered by a rebuilt 350ci V8 backed by an automatic transmission. It comes equipped with factory air conditioning, power steering, and power front disc brakes. Additional features include a center console, an aftermarket Pioneer stereo, a bed tonneau cover, and a wood bed floor. Refinished in medium blue over a blue vinyl and houndstooth cloth interior, this C10 is available now and comes from the selling dealer with a clear California title.

The exterior of this truck was refinished in the reportedly original color of medium blue during the restoration and features chrome bumpers, a polished aluminum grille shell with a gray insert, and a cowl-mounted antenna. Additional equipment includes dual side mirrors, a short Stepside bed with chrome steps, a wood bed floor with polished hardware and stainless strips, a black vinyl tonneau bed cover, and black Chevrolet lettering on the tailgate.
