Things of quality have no fear of time, nd this 1972 Chevrolet C10 Custom Deluxe is a fine example. Powerful, andsome, nd ready to work or play; it's a head-turner that still knows how to earn a living.Two-tone has always been a distinctive style on vintage pickups. On this bow tie, t emphasizes the C10's clean, traight lines and gives this former workhorses a feeling of sophistication. It also helps that the blue and white paintwork benefits from a modern clearcoat practices, o it greatly outshines any factory color. Because this is a Custom Deluxe it comes with some nice extra body chrome, ncluding the upper and lower body side accents that separate the two colors. But just because this is a shining star, on't be afraid to load it up with weekend projects. The rubber bed mat will help you bring home the hardware store without showing the aftermath.Inside the two-tone switches to blue and black. This looks especially nice on the textured door panels. The black bench looks like it has never seen a crease, hich is a testament to the durability of the vinyl and the investment in this pickup. The driver gets the steering wheel from a later model Chevy truck, nd beyond that the dash is a nice and clear set of factory gauges. To the side is the comfort of heat/defrost and a newer AM/FM/cassette stereo with knob-style controls still keep the atmosphere feeling '70s vintage perfect.The engine is a 350 cubic-inch V8, s advertised on the front fenders. It looks very authentic with a factory air cleaner up top, right Chevy Orange paint on the engine, nd very tidy wires and hoses. In fact, t has all the right markings to be the original powerplant. Keen eyes will notice the newer Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, o now this factory motor has a bit more power and a deeper rumble out of the dual exhaust. This is mated to a sturdy TH350 three-speed automatic that feeds the 12-bolt rear end running a versatile 3.07 gears. So you know this is a good everyday pickup. But the 1972 C10s are really sought-after because this was the final year for the trailing arm rear suspension, hich helps makes these Chevys ride much smoother than most other vintage pickups. Plus, t has the convenience of power steering, ront disc brakes, nd modern BF Goodrich T/A rubber at all four corners with iconic Rally wheels. So while this truck might be a Saturday project hauler, t's also a clean Sunday car show cruiser.A very nice truck at a great price, ou can easily justify this purchase simply because it'll be both a tool and a jewel in your garage.
