Details

Riley Performance out of Gainesville,TX rebuilt this custom 1966 Chevrolet C10 pickup from head to toe. Under the hood is a completely customized engine bay housing a supercharged 6.2-liter GM Performance LSA crate engine backed by a 4L85E GM Performance automatic transmission with an aluminum driveshaft and a Nodular Ford 9-inch rear end. The original valve covers were modified to fit along with the LSA engine cover to blend the new with the old as well as a Concept One pulley drive system that was added. This custom pickup sits on a Roadster Shop REVO III chassis and suspension that has been completely powder coated in Satin Bronze and a deep dark brown that ties in its color to the matched offset Forgeline wheels. With special attention to detail and no-expenses-spared, the polished stainless steel 3-inch exhaust is threaded in and out of the frame and exits thru the rear bumper. Big Wilwood brakes and custom color-matched safety harnesses can bring any party to an end, and this party just gets started with its creature comforts and Italian leather interior. On the inside, the Subterranean Metallic exterior color as well as the Champagne Silver accent color from the metal fabrication to the upholstery of the interior is custom with attention to a tasteful mixture of modern electronics and old-school design. The dash has a faux-painted finish that appears to be leather with walnut accents and the lower area of the dash was extended in length to add a cubby area that has power ports for stowing phones and personal effects. The 1,200-watt audio system goes somewhat visually unnoticed as it is integrated into the interior with the head unit flush-mounted in the dash. Many of the controls are tucked away under a flip-up door pull which is where controls for the electric mirrors and windows are found. The oak bed floor is color match stained to the truck with a thick clear coat giving it a wet look and the interior of the bed has Champagne accent paint. This truck has been to a handful of car shows and is always recognized with top awards.
