Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Houston presents this 1968 Chevrolet C10 Step side for sale. This step side pickup has recently been through a frame-off restoration creating one unbelievable Resto-Mod. Starting with a completely rust-free truck, the body was removed from the frame where the chassis underwent several modifications. 4-wheel Wilwood disc brakes were added, and the steering was updated with a power rack & pinion set up. A stainless-steel fuel tank was dropped in between the frame rails behind the rear axle. This replaces the original fuel tank that was behind the seat from the factory. New lowering springs were placed in the rear with drop spindles up front. All suspension bushings were replaced as well. The body of the truck is very good, with fit and finish being a major focus. The deep black paint has a high gloss finish. All the chrome and stainless are new along with all the glass and weather stripping. Wood floor in bed and custom frenched taillights in the fenders. The custom black leather interior is what really raises the bar on this truck. All molded black leather, from the seats, door panels, kick panels, headliner, behind the seat and even atop the dash. The complete cab interior is covered in black leather. A new Ididit chrome tilt column was installed with a custom leather wrapped steering wheel. New Auto Meter gauges have been added along with Vintage Air and a Kenwood sound system. This awesome truck is powered by a fuel-injected Vortec 6.0-liter V8 producing 300hp and 360lb/ft of torque. The transmission is a 4L80E automatic overdrive and the truck retains its original 12-bolt rear axle with 3.42 gears. All is kept cool with an oversized aluminum radiator and external transmission cooler. The drivetrain performs as it should and is super smooth, cruising at highway speeds with ease. The truck also sits on a new set of 20" chrome Boss wheels and tires

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.
