ZZ4-POWERED 1968 CHEVROLET C10 SHORT BOX

OVERVIEW

This restored 1968 Chevrolet C10 was featured on the cover of the November 1992 issue of Hot Rod magazine. Since being sold on AutoHunter in May 2023, it has reportedly received approximately $13,000 in updates, including new interior components, a new sound system, engine work, and new rear suspension hardware. Power is supplied by a ZZ4 383ci V8 stroker engine and backed by a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission. Features include power steering, power front disc brakes, a molded front roll pan, shaved door handles, Vintage Air air conditioning, and rear air shocks with a new onboard compressor. Finished in teal over a reupholstered saddle vinyl interior, this C10 comes from the selling dealer with a clear title.

EXTERIOR – FEATURES

During the restoration under previous ownership, the exterior was finished in teal. Features include a molded front roll pan, frenched amber front turn signals, a molded grille shell, colored-matched grille and headlight trim, shaved fender marker lights, a driver-side mirror, and shaved door handles with updated door poppers. Additional features include a shaved cab fuel filler neck, a frenched antenna, a short fleetside pickup bed, bed-mounted Pontiac Trans Am fender vents, shaved bed marker lights, a hinged black vinyl tonneau cover, shaved reverse lights, and wide inner bed fenders. Other custom elements include a relocated fuel tank and battery, a louvered tailgate with a shaved handle, clear taillights, and a molded rear roll pan.

EXTERIOR - WHEELS AND TIRES

A set of three-spoke, staggered-width Weld Racing wheels is wrapped in radial tires in the front and 29” x 15.50” Hoosier Pro Street radial tires in the rear.

The dashboard has received a new saddle vinyl pad and the new bench seat and the door panels are covered in saddle vinyl with diamond-quilted inserts.
