1978 CHEVROLET C10 CUSTOM PICKUP

This custom 1978 Chevrolet C10 belonged to an off-road race team from Arizona for 36 years. The truck is virtually untouched from their build of it 35 years ago. The build started out with a low-mileage factory short-bed 2-wheel-drive C10. The interior received a leather-wrapped full roll cage, Mastercraft race seats with '70s-era plaid inserts, matching plaid inserts in the door panels, a GM sport steering wheel and Simpson racing belts. The exterior is equipped with a Hickey Off-Road drop-down fiberglass hood, Pre-Runner front push bar with KC Day Lighters, bed-mount spare tire carrier and a custom off-road rear bumper. The truck rolls on vintage Enkei gold anodized wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich all-terrain T/As. The suspension retains the original Rough Country dual racing shocks up front and Mickey Thompson rear shocks. It is also equipped with front and rear axle truss kits and a Rough country high-capacity rear differential cover. It is powered by a GM LT1 crate engine loaded with roller rockers, high-lift cam, gear drive and Hooker headers with a custom-made stainless exhaust system, updated Bowtie cylinder heads and performance Edelbrock carburetors. The body retains its factory code 46 Holly Green color on Arizona desert sheet metal. Hand-laid custom pinstriping. With a huge folder of original GM documentation and receipts for what was done to it over the years. Sold new at Chapman Chevrolet in Tempe, AZ. Custom ordered in Holly green.
