Description of 1979 Chevrolet C-10 |
|
Beautiful truck. A true daily driver! I replaced tons of parts on this truck to make a reliable daily driver. The 700r4 performance overdrive transmission and Fitech fuel injection make this a great driving combination that gets reasonable gas mileage for a truck this age! Has about 270HP. Runs great with plenty of power and torque! Drives straight down the road with no wandering or pulling. You can take your hands of the wheel and it will drive straight down the road. Engine sounds great with 2 chamber dual exhaust. This truck can sit in 100 degree SoCal bumper to bumper traffic and not get hot. The steering is very tight due to installing a new CPP performance steering box and new tie rod ends. Lowered with a 6”inch flip kit / rear c-notched frame and 5 inch front drop spindles / drop springs. Dual 16 gallon fuel tanks that both work properly. New base coat clear coat paint with all new stainless body trim and mirrors. NO RUST ANYWHERE ON THIS TRUCK!! New interior parts with a 1990’s Silverado bench seat installed. This seat sits lower and back further to give us tall guys some extra room. This bench seat install actually made this truck comfortable to drive! The truck is an original AC vehicle. I took off the ac compressor, original exhaust manifolds, quadrajet carb, original intake manifold, catalytic converter, smog pump, and original steering wheel. All of these original parts will come with the vehicle when it’s sold. There’s 1 dent on the truck at the driver side rear wheel panel due to a tire blow out that dented the panel.
