1968 Chevrolet C/K Truck

Cruisin Classics is very excited to offer to you this absolutely stunning 1968 Chevrollet C-10 stepside! This Chevy is loaded with options and upgrades all wrapped in a gorgeous green package. Originally a dark green truck, it now wears a slick glossy coat of light green paint that is so nice that we would call it show-quality (a term we dont use loosely around here). The front end of the truck features a brilliant chrome bumper, a like-new grille, and gleaming headlight bezels that match the standard set by the beautiful paint job. Bright elements like the window trim, dual side mirrors, and door handles really pop against the green background. The gas tank has been relocated under the bed and where the original fill was at the back corner of the cab is now a decorative chrome faux cap . At the rear of the cab youll notice that the standard window has been upgraded to a 4-panel slider rear window from CR Laurence. The bed floor has been outfitted with beautiful new wood and a new gas fill has been positioned on the floor towards the rear. The tailgate has hook closures with plastic-wrapped chains and it is flanked by a new set of tail lights. The rear bumper has the same perfect mirror finish as the one up front. The head-turning exterior is taken to a whole new level with a lowered stance courtesy of CPP lowering springs and drop spindles. The stance is perfectly accented by a set of bright chrome US Mags wheels wrapped in newer Venezia Crusade HP tires. Lift the hood to find an exceptionally clean and organized engine bay thats sure to get your blood pumping! At the heart is an era-correct 396ci V-8 dressed in a fresh coat of Chevy orange paint. This big block is topped with chrome valve covers, a 4-barrel Holley carburetor, and a chrome air cleaner with 396 call-outs. At the front of the engine is a new serpentine belt system, a power-steering unit, and a new compressor for the Vintage Air system. Not only does this C10 have the Vintage A/C system, but the lines have been tucked and hidden to allow for a clean, smoothed firewall a very cool look! Keeping things cool up front is a new aluminum radiator with dual electric fans and a chrome overflow cannister. Exhaust flows through new Patriot headers, new pipes, and new Magnaflow mufflers to give this truck just the right amount of pleasing rumble at the rear. Stopping power is provided by a CPP front and rear power disc brake conversion yet another great upgrade. The big V-8 is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission that puts the power down via a 12-bolt rear end. It is obvious wherever you look under the hood that this is a very well thought out, fresh, high-quality build! Top-notch quality and upgrades continue inside the cab with an eye-pleasing and comfortable black interior. The black door panels are in like-new condition and appear OEM correct. A bright chrome sill plate leads you inside to a very nice black vinyl bench seat accented with a filigree pattern that adds to the cool factor. The green painted dash is topped with a crack-free black vinyl pad and features new Classic Instruments gauges (speedometer, tachometer, clock, fuel, volts, temp, and oil) set in a black bezel. In the center of the dash are controls for the Vintage Air system that provides ice-cold A/C and hot heat with an incredibly strong fan. There is a Retrosound-style stereo in the dash that powers up, but is inoperative. The actual working stereo is a Memphis AM/FM/BT unit mounted inside the glovebox that plays through Phoenix Gold speakers in the kick panels and Pioneer speakers in the rear corners. Also in the glovebox, on the back of the door, is the original Service Parts Identification sticker - a great unexpected extra. Ahead of the driver is a green 3-spoke OEM steering wheel with working horn on a green tilt column. Rising from the floor is a Hurst dog-leg shifter with a white pattern ball for the 4-speed transmission. The floor is covered with high-quality black hook & loop carpet kept nice with black rubber floormats. If youre on the hunt for a 67-72 era C-10, youre sure to be stopped in your tracks by this over-the-top 68 stepside! This high-quality build really checks all the boxes beautiful slick paint, new wood bed, perfect stance, eye-catching wheels & tires, gleaming brightwork, era-correct 396 big block, 4-speed manual with a Hurst shifter, new exhaust with headers, Vintage Air, 4-wheel disc brake conversion, comfortable interior, and a modern stereo!
