Description

When you upgrade a 1971 Chevrolet C10 to full fuel-injected LS1 power, then you expect it to be as slick as this. So look over all the detail work, because this truck earns its custom aggressive appearance. You instantly know there's something special about this Chevy the moment it comes into view. After all, the factory never offered such a deep shade of blue. And when the sunshine hits the straight sheetmetal, it releases a terrific metallic element... that will make you want to take this one out every weekend. Bright bumpers, deleted trim, smooth grille, and a smooth tailgate all add to this sleek package. Up front, the cowl induction hood signals extra performance, and there's more indication in the rear with the extra wide rubber on those Boyds alloys. The first thing you'll notice when you open the door is the fresh seat with cool houndstooth fabric inserts. It gives this classic truck a classic muscle car feeling. And as you get inside, more of that powerful presence continues on the Grant GT sports steering wheel and B&M floor shifter. But even with all the performance-minded feeling, this never loses the old school truck attitude. That's why you have side vent windows and the sliding rear glass for the ideal pickup breeze (it also lets you hear the exhaust note better.) You'll love lifting the hood at car shows to show off this major upgrade. In fact, the engine bay is ready to showcase this properly with its polished inner fenders. You're looking at fuel-injected LS1 V8 from a 2001 Trans Am WS6 (less than 50k miles on this motor.) And while that's already a huge power enhancement, this modern motor has upgraded further with a FAST intake manifold, fresh air intake, and Doug Thorley headers that feed a sweet-sounding dual exhaust. The stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission was rebuilt only two years ago. This feeds a one-piece four-inch driveshaft on its way to a 12-bolt rear with 4.10 gears for power takeoffs. And you may have noticed that they tubbed the bed to make sure you could fit those wide 29x15 Mickey Thompson rear tires. While this is a terrific performance package, it's also a fine all around classic. After all, modern fuel-injection makes for a steadfast runner. And power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and the C10's trailing arm rear suspension are all great driving pieces. This is an awesomely upgraded classic truck, and its offered for an irresistible price. So you know you need to hurry if you want to grab this deal. Call today!!!
