Chevrolet C10 Silverado 502 V8 1978

General description : Description
The boxy bodies of classic pickups like this 1978 Chevrolet C10 Silverado are now an iconic symbol of toughness. While most of these have a no-nonsense appearance, this truck has been nicely restored with fresh investments including the paint and A/C interior. And when you add in the big 502 cubic-inch V8 under the hood, you know you're looking at a powerful and elegant custom.
This truck looks impressive because it has a history or quality investments. It had its initial restoration in 1996, and there's binder detailing the work and over $26k invested. Plus, there was another $10k spent within the last year to really keep this one looking awesome. Part of this fresh investment includes the paint, and it's a very thoughtful package. The Frost White and Gray two-tone utilize the Silverado's premium trim as a proper dividing line down the side of the truck. It not only looks sleek, but it also does a great job of showcasing the straightness of the sheetmetal. And we bet you also noticed that side trim was upgraded with a bold red stripe in the middle. Even the hood was custom painted to reflect the full color theme. The billet grille, shining chrome bumpers, new bed liner paint, and new 20-inch Ridler wheels are all part of a package designed to impress.
All those red accents on the outside get even more striking when you open the door to see the color dominate the interior. There are nice vintage details, like the texture around the door panels and the classic round gauges, but what you really notice inside are all the well-integrated upgrades. For example, the fresh seat has a bench-like look, but now it's been done with enough custom contouring to give you bucket-like comfort. There's power windows, power locks, a tilt steering column, cup holders, an AM/FM/CD stereo, and cold-blowing R134a air conditioning. And we especially like the headliner with custom interior lighting and a built-in radar detector.
This truck is not only custom and comfortable, but it's also quite powerful, too. You have a big 502 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. While the muscle from that displacement is enough for most people, this one takes it further with by inhaling deeply with a Holley four-barrel carburetor and exhaling through long tube headers. It creates a strong power package that makes a terrific sound out of the dual exhaust. This also has nice supporting features like an Optima red top battery, braided fuel lines, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fans. There are even new dual fuel tanks. And the big power is handled by a stout and smooth TH400 three-speed automatic transmission that feed the 12-bolt rear end. Plus, there's power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and the grip of modern Nitto ZR-rated tires.
Flair, comfort, power, and substance all come together to create a great custom classic. So at a price like this, you know you need to hurry if you want to grab this deal. Call today!!!

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing.

No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.

When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.

Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.

To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.

With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
