West Coast Classics are proud to present a 1968 Chevrolet C10 custom pickup which is an original factory-equipped short-bed, big-window truck. It has been completely restored with some 964 miles since its completion. It is finished in GM black paint with a new hood, new fenders, grille assembly, bed, tailgate, front and rear bumpers, lights and hardware. The red interior has also been redone with factory-style upholstery, carpet, dash, controls, cables and air conditioning. This custom pickup is powered by an LS V8 engine mated to a 4L60E automatic transmission and MagnaFlow exhaust. The brakes have been upgraded to a 5-lug power disc setup.

Exterior and Interior
Sporting a smooth black coat, this 1968 Chevrolet C-10 Restomod has been lowered, as you no doubt notice from the photos. It rides on a set of shiny alloy wheels with red-striped low-profile tires, granting it a distinctive look, particularly from the side profile. The rear lights appear to have been upgraded, while the headlamps remain in stock. The truck bed also seems to have received a new bed liner. Finally, we see the full-size window upgrade option has been performed on this truck. Now let's head inside, where we find new Red vinyl upholstery. A single bench seat can accommodate three abreast, but we'd recommend sticking to two in the interests of comfort and safety. Gaze upwards, and you'll find an Alcantara headliner adorning the roof. The truck sports its original dash, complemented by a new tilt steering column. Dakota Digital gauges sit where the originals did, and a black TMI steering wheel has been installed as well. Next, we observe air conditioning, and the current owner tells us that the truck has received a new AC unit to ensure proper cooling. Finally, there's a Pioneer radio with a CD player.
Now for the really interesting stuff. Let's start with the 5.3L V8 that sits beneath the hood of this 1968 Chevrolet C-10 Restomod. An automatic transmission sends its ample reserves of power to the rear wheels via a new 12-bolt rear end. The engine is said to have received ceramic headers as well as a new exhaust, an all new suspension and sway bars, as well as Wilwood 6-piston disc brakes for better-stopping prowess.
The truck is a great daily driver which is beautifully presented and unusual and would prove a very striking promotional pickup which is turn key ready with no expense spared on its recent mechanicals and restoration.
