Own a Piece of Family History: 1968 Chevrolet C10
Think of it as more than just a truck. This 1968 Chevrolet C10 is a rolling family album, having spent its whole life zipping between Indiana and Colorado, always in the hands of one family. It’s got a heart of gold – or at least a 307ci V8 under the hood, linked to a trusty three-speed manual transmission. Decked out in a classic maroon over red cloth interior, this vintage beauty still dazzles with chrome bumpers, a white grille, and even a retro AM/FM stereo. The current owner scooped it up from their dad back in ’84, and now it’s up for grabs, no reserves, reassured by a clean Colorado title.
Classic Exterior with a Few Stories to Tell
If you’re wondering how it looks after all these years, well, it sports that charming, faded maroon patina seasoned with time. The truck struts its stuff with a white grille, chrome bumpers, and C20 badging. A little rust decorates the rocker panels and bed – character marks, if you ask us! The seller did mention the hood, grille, and front fenders got a fresh coat after taking a few hits in its lifetime.
Wheels and Brakes
Still rolling strong on white 15″ steel wheels paired with a mix of trusty Peerless tires, this truck keeps you stopping with old-school drum brakes at each corner. Reliability, authenticity – take your pick.
Interior: A Nostalgic Journey
Step inside, and you’re greeted by a snug bench seat upholstered in red cloth, pairing handsomely with door panel inserts of the same hue. The seller notes a little dash love with fresh dyeing, although you may find yourself jiggling the locks since the key seems to have taken a little adventure of its own.
Dashboard and Mileage
Wrap your hands around the classic two-spoke steering wheel, and you’re facing a simple but reliable 100-mph speedometer, flanked by those good ol’ supplementary gauges. The odometer’s a cheeky old fellow, flipped over past 51k miles but still ticking on.
Under the Hood: Performance
- Engine: 307ci V8
- Carburetor: Holley, paired with a shiny chrome intake lid
- Recent Tune-Up: Included oil change, timing belt fix, and a new battery
This truck doesn’t just purr; it roars back to life with every turn of the key.
Transmission
Powering to the rear wheels is as easy as pie with a classic three-speed manual transmission. You want the nostalgic feel of gears at your command; this is it.
