1969 Chevy C-10 2wd Short Bed CUSTOM WE HOPE YOU LIKE ALOT OF PICTURES because we have over 100 large ones below ! Why buy from us ? Our feedback speaks for itself and we have some of the very BEST REPRESENTED vehicles on ebay !! by that I mean we post over 100 pics of the vehicle. Inside, outside, under , everywhere !! Ive yet to see anyone else on ebay put up detailed pics like ours. We dont have alot of fine print blah blah. Just the important stuff buyers are looking for.. like GOOD PICTURES !!!! 69s where in my opinion one of the best yr C10s from this generation to buy.. still had coil spring rear for a good ride and the nicest grill / front end. FIRST AND FOREMOST some brief history about this truck: The way you see the truck is basically how we got it, except for a few things not connected when we got it. The truck was and has been in Az for almost its whole life, that said, we found some rust under both door rockers, and around the cowl area, but thats the worst of it all. Rest of the truck is very solid. The truck was owned by an older gentleman pretty much since it was new and used around a ranch outside the Tucson area. It didnt get alot of use or wear and tear and for the most part kept up like most folks keep their vehicles. The grandpa passed away and Jr got ahold of it. (the owner prior to us). He was given this truck running, driving ALL ORIGINAL nice driving truck. HE decided to modify it to his taste, only problem he was an idiot and didnt know crap about working on cars. He pulled out the original 350 motor and somewhere picked up a big block (IM pretty sure its a 396, but still trying to confirm) and with some help from a friend who thought he was a mechanic, had the big block installed. The truck never drove on the streets again, and this was about a yr ago. We got the truck how you see it, not running and not finished and not even sure I can say the motor swap was done correctly. He threw alot of money at it with new and used parts, but it never got finished. Pulley and belts not correct where the first thing I noticed, wiring has been hacked up for starting it and the list goes on. I did see a video of the motor running before we bought it, and it sounded decent and was running good too. But not driving. For some reason some of the parts where disconnected or removed (PS hoses, carb was missing, etc.) We put a carb on it and then did a primitive job on the wiring just trying to hear it run for ourselves. I got it to start with pouring gas in the fuel bowl once just to hear it myself and then decided not to mess with it anymore. You are buying a REALLY STRAIGHT BODY, frame and suspension in great shape, interior not too bad of a 69 C10 short bed. The truck needs the right person to finish it their way and to do it the right way. You get the truck as is, with the big block AND it comes with the what Im almost sure is the original 350 small block, it has been taken apart getting ready to get rebuilt and will come with that motor too in the bed of the truck. 1 truck, 2 motors.. The transmission linkage is missing a bracket too making it hard to get into park when sitting behind the steering wheel, just fyi too. FOR MUCH MORE INFO AND PICS, PLEASE READ MORE BELOW ! IN SHORT, I got it running today with no belts etc connected with an electric pump inline. Carb still not acting right but I think I could drive it around the parking lot if needed. But Wouldnt want to drive it too long w/o the water pump etc turning. So , the motor runs thats in it. It would have to be correctly set back in the mounts because I dont like how they did it at all, and all the belts etc would need to be finished and the PS too. The easy way would be to buy a March Racing Pulley set for it all and do it that way, unless you decide to pull this motor and put the original 350 or crate motor back in it... its up to you. VERY RARE AND DESIRABLE Short Bed Chevy C10 CST Arizona Truck Arizona Truck minimal rust / still probably less rust on this truck then anything on ebay not restored. BUY 1 of our AZ vehicles and spend less time repairing rust for weeks on end, and keep more of the original sheetmetal making your project worth more in the end and spending less money in the end. OUR 100% feedback speaks for itself - PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR FEEDBACK !! and many of our feedback are from about 15 cars we sold just this past year here on EBay. We put more time and effort into our ads making it much easier for the potential buyers to bid with confidence. NOT MANY OF THESE trucks left with original sheetmetal still like this one. UN RESTORED SURVIVOR. Our auctions clearly show the most detail of what to expect Over any other auctions Ive seen online. Buy with confidence !! This trucks has been in AZ as far back as we can track. ITS NOT A RESTORED TRUCK BY ANY MEANS !!!! EXTERIOR: For a 40+ yr old truck, its still in pretty nice shape. ITS NOT RESTORED but still a survivor somewhat thats use to be really nice and has the potential to be very nice once again. Paint is NOT original, dont think it is anyways, but its the original Light Blue which to me is one of GMs best colors. I know at least the white cab was painted at one time to match rest of the truck. The chrome bumper are in really nice shape and could be original too. All the glass seems to also be in nice shape and usable just as is. As mentioned early, the lower rocker have some rust and one of the lower corners in the RF fender I think has had some minor repair at one time. Rest of the body looks very rust and bondo free to me. Check out the pics and see for yourself. I cant say 100% for sure, but I dont see anything on the body that throws any red flags. Original and But for the most part this would be considered a very rust free or Low rust AZ vehicle. DAMAGE REPORT: most noticeably DRIVETRAIN: .sometime in the last 5 yrs the original motor possibly died which then the last owner decided to install the big block. Again I think its a 396, and Im trying to confirm. There are pics of the motor below and any #s I could find on the block. If you need more pics of it anywhere, email me and tell me where to find them and Ill do my best to ad those pics to the auction. To the best of my knowledge the trans is a TH400 and its suppose to be in good shape too. Same with the factory rearend. At this time, I can crank the motor with the key because of some very temp primitive wiring we did, but it only starts when we pour gas down the carb and runs okay. No knocking, no smoke at least. ALthought it runs okay when we start it like that, it does idle rough. I hear evidence of a mild cam, and its a choppy rough idle too. Looks like they did install a new aluminum large radiator too. ID like to work on it more this week and try to get it running somewhere close to normal, but cant promise Ill have the time to do that. If I make any headway during the auction, Ill post it up here in the auction. I always to to make our vehicles at least driveable onto a car hauler but cant promise I can do it on this one. INTERIOR: old, original showing its age, its because its an Az truck yrs here in the Az desert, the front bench seat is in decent shape. Its an old interior that needs work here too, but this stuff to me is much easier then repairing paint and rust issues for weeks. Front seat is pretty nice shape, but I noticed that its not bolted in fulley. Great potential to build it YOUR WAY and do it right the way you want. Obviously pretty much every part you need for these trucks is available in the aftermarket sector, so that helps alot in restoring these, whether you decide to go all original, resto mod or full custom. The rubber and weather stripping is all but gone and needs to be replaced soon. Speedo not hooked up anymore and the gas gauge does not work. Smells like an old truck SUSPENSION: looks and feels pretty much all stock and original. Does have factory PDB up front and the brakes seem to work fine when we are moving it around our yard. These are so simple to lower if thats in your plans and seeing as its so rust free, this one will be much easier to take apart and put back together without worrying about bolts breaking over and over while removing parts. The factory ralley style 15x8 6 lug steel wheels where painted the current grey color by the last owner, aka JR ding dong. I dont see anything to really worry about here. Check out ALL the pics below -----> If other auctions are not showing areas under their trucks, who really knows what sort of shape its in. Dont find out the hard and $$ way. At least our auctions show as much as possible to potential buyers and bidders. it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra scroll bar on the right side.

On Sep-02-15 at 12:23:19 PDT, seller added the following information: WE MADE A MISTAKE, SO IGNORE THIS PART OF THE AD: For a 40+ yr old truck, its still in pretty nice shape. ITS NOT RESTORED, but all Original and pretty cool just that way. Check out all the pics, please !! Original color was Wimbledon White and it was repainted about 10 yrs ago close to the same color. Its not too bad but nothing close to show quality. Glass seems to be all good for its age , no cracks or damage there. Bed and tailgate showing the most wear and tear inside. There are a few bullet holes in the tailgate haha. Back window pretty large too. CHECK out inside the bed, the last owner made his own tool box area and used I think an old Caddy hood for the cover THIS WAS FROM A PREVIOUS FORD TRUCK WE JUST SOLD A FEW WEEKS AGOAND THAT PART OF THE AD GOT LEFT IN SOME HOW IN THE NEW AD. THIS TRUCK IM PRETTY SURE ORIGINALLY WAS BLUE ON BLUEILL POST MORE PICS OF IT LATER TONITE INCLUDING A PIC OF THE DOOR TAGTOO.THANKS !!! On Sep-02-15 at 23:32:57 PDT, seller added the following information: For all the paranoid people out there, just let me say the yr was a TYPO human error and the truck is a 1964 model. The VIN TAG on the DR door matches the ARIZONA TITLE.The truck was taken off the road back in 2007, prior to that it was a daily registered driver. Keep in mind, if you have any reservation on bidding on one of our vehicles, check outour FEEDBACK, and keep in mind we have been selling vehicles on EBAY for over 10 yrs without a problem. THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST On Sep-04-15 at 01:58:48 PDT, seller added the following information: WOW, I FEEL LIKE A KNUCKLEHEAD AND I CONSIDER MYSELF A FORD GUY BUT WAS TOLD THIS WAS A BIG BLOCK MOTOR and didnt pay much attention at all to it. AS ONE Ebay viewer pointed out, the DECAL on the Valve Cover I posted upCLEARLY SAYS its from the 351C / 400 CID FAMILY D6 of of course would be 1976 YR.SO THE MOTOR IS CLEARLY NOT A 429/460 (although in my defense the motors do look similar haha) I DID KNOW IT WASNT FROM THE FE family because of how the heads and Intake match up. BUT ANYWAYS, THE MOTOR IN THIS TRUCK IS A MODERN 351/400 NOT SURE IF ITS A 351M or 400, but we know its NOT a 429/460 motor. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THE CORRECT INFO IS OUT THERE BEFORE THE RESERVE MAY GET HIT. In MANY WAYS, the current motor is much better then a big block.. STILL PLENTY OF POWER, PLENTY OF WAYS TO MOD IT IF YOU WANT FOR MORE HP AND POSSIBLY A LITTLE BETTER ON GAS MILEAGE. On Sep-05-15 at 15:08:12 PDT, seller added the following information: I HAD ANOTHER EBAYER ASK ME TO CHECK THE VIN ON THE FRAME TO SEE IF ITMATCHED THE DOOR TAG AND TITLE AND I CHECKED IT TODAY AND IT DOES.ILL POST A PIC OF THE FRAME VIN STAMP TONITE. On Sep-24-15 at 02:12:22 PDT, seller added the following information: I think I put above that this truck has PDB up front THEY ARE NOT POWER, but they are FRONT DISC at least.JUST wanted to amend the ad with the correction.thanksOn Sep-24-15 at 02:48:04 PDT, seller added the following information: 1 more correction, I meant to say the front brakes are NOT DISC OR POWER THEY ARE NON POWER DRUMS both FRONT and of course REAR TOO.THEY STOP WELL, but not disc or power. thanks !On Oct-26-15 at 14:57:11 PDT, seller added the following information: People have been asking me if it will drive enough as is to get onto a car hauler.Its safe to say NO because at the very least it will need a fuel pump to drive for afew minutes like loading it. Not to mention with the carb the way and linkage forthe shifter not connected correctly, It would be safer to winch or push it up. Some of the other stuff added to the description you can ignore, it was from a previous truck we sold on ebay and forgot to remove when we relisted it.,..sorry.
