Details

A true short bed '72 Chevrolet restoration that has been driven less than 200 miles since its completion. This truck was a complete frame-off restoration and was painted Chevy Hugger Orange. It has a new steel cowl hood, and the 1972 grille has been removed and replaced with a grille from a 1969 C-10. The bed has been lined and the rear bumper has been changed to a roll pan for the classic look. It's driven by a Chevrolet 383 stroker with 11:1 compression and a strong cam. This motor is topped with aluminum Edelbrock heads with roller rockers, an Edelbrock intake manifold and an 850 cfm Demon carburetor for maximum performance and drivability. The exhaust starts with Hooker long tube headers into a 3' Magnaflow dual exhaust system. The TH400 automatic transmission is newly rebuilt with a transmission brake and B&M ratchet shifter. The axle is a GM 12-bolt with posi-traction and 3.73 gears. The vehicle requires heavy stopping power, and this truck is equipped with power front disc brakes and new rear drum brakes. It also has power steering to move the brand-new 20' Ridler rims and new Falken 275/40 R20 tires. The interior has been recently completed in tan with a new gauge cluster, tilt steering column and a bench seat. It has an aftermarket stereo installed with speakers in the kick panels. This truck has an AirMax air ride system that has been professionally installed with a C-notch in the rear frame so it's ready to sit low.
