I am offering for sale my 1972 Chevrolet C10 big block pickup (long bed). It is factory black with the original 400 big block motor complete and untouched - even has the original smog pump in place. It still has the original 3 speed manual transmission (three on the tree). It has power brakes (disc brakes in front), rear coil suspension, manual steering, and no AC. It has all the cool patina that everybody is looking for these days. Paint is original though the tailgate may have been sprayed at some point. Everything works . . . the original AM radio, dash gauges and lights, heater, turn signals, etc. It has good glass all around. Cosmetically, I installed a new dash pad and had the seat professionally reupholstered with new foam, and installed new seat belts. Mechanically, it has new rear brakes, a new Bosch battery, new windshield wipers, and runs and stops well. Tires are decent. Bed has a bed liner in it. It does have the usual rust in the rockers, cab corners, and cab floor but it has been coated in POR-15 so there's no problem. Even with the patina, everything is clean and serviceable - heck, my wife will even ride with me in the truck. It goes down the highway just fine. The truck is 40 years old and does have some quirks. The gas cap can be fidgety to get on and off. The right turn signal indicator light in the dash doesn't always come on but the outside signals do work correctly. I replaced all the bulbs in the dash along with the printed circuit. The gas gauge sometimes gets squirelly . . . I did replace the gauge and the sending unit. Heater works but the air flow isn't super strong. The truck was missing a couple pieces of trim which I replaced. I think that's all the bugs that I am aware of. I'm still tinkering with these little things . . . just wanted to call them out for full disclosure. Please know what you are bidding on. This is a 40 year old vintage truck as described. Do not expect a pristine, perfect paint, Barrett-Jackson truck. Buy this truck because it's an original big block truck that has the look and runs good.This was a one owner truck when I bought it . . . I still have some of the documents and the Bible dated 1972 that the owner kept in the glove box of the truck since new. It could (should) be somebody's daily driver. This truck has the right look and the right patina . . . you could drive this truck for ten years and still sell it for more than you paid for it. Title is clear and in my name. I am happy to work with your shipper. Thanks for looking!
