1972 Chevrolet K-10

1972 Chevrolet K-10 Pickup

For consignment, a nice and straight, rust free, K-10 Pickup. This 4x4 is bathed in interesting and beautiful dark green paint and uses black accenting along with shiny chrome for its look. A 350ci V8 motor is now in, and for the interior, wonderfully redone. Oh and don\'t forget the oak lined bed looking like new, and it\'s open for the world to see!

Exterior
Probably one of the most popular of all the GM trucks, this 2nd generation last year 1972 has the look that is very desirable. A nice shiny egg crate grille, single round headlights on either side within a square chrome bezel, and wide surround just above the bumper and all is in very good condition. This leads the way for the straight steel with well minded gaps and all bathed in dark green metallic paint. Badging, marker lighting, handles and mirrors have been kept in chrome and adds a nice peppering of accenting to the turquoise background. On the back of the cab is a long sliding lightly tinted glass window and this gazes out upon the fully restored oak lined bed and polished diamond plate tool box. Beautiful dark green metallic also bathes this inside, and tailgate, and there does not appear to be a mark on it. Chrome plated 6 spoke rims in 16-inch format are wrapped in deeply treaded LT285/75R16 radials. Overall an excellent presentation on an iconic must have model K-10.

Interior
Utility meets comfort, and a smattering of bling also is noted for this interior. The door panels, in black, have an embossed Sheridan tooled look on these panels, along with black molded plastic for the armrests, and the lower panel is all dark green steel. Moving to the bench, it\'s beautiful and a nice compliment to the exterior, utilizing black vinyl which has been tucked and rolled for the inserts. The surrounding bolsters are black vinyl, and all are in excellent condition, as are the Sheridan embossings within the seats. In front of the 2 spoke steering wheel is the iconic dash for GM in this generation in the form of a trio of round gauges within a black dash front. More circular instruments in smaller format run along the bottom of the dash front. Chromed eyeball vents are seen on each corner. Mounted neatly in dash central is an aftermarket sound system with AM/FM/Cassette capabilities. This truck is equipped with Classic Auto Air A/C, and has a black padded dash top. Black textured matting is like new and covering the floors, and above is a black tucked and rolled vinyl headliner.

Drivetrain
Under the hood, and within a gaggle of wiring and hoses is stuffed a 350ci engine. This has an aluminum intake and a Holley 4-barrel carburetor feeding things, and on back a TH350 3-speed automatic. Rear wheel power is distributed by a 12-bolt rear and with a pull of the transfer case handle the Dana 44 front axle can be engaged. Headers are now on and melt into a Flowmaster exhaust.

Undercarriage
All clean underneath with light surface rust seen only on the leaf springs. All else is nice and black and structurally sound. Even the bed liner boards underneath look great! Leaf springs all around, and power disc brakes for the front, and power drums for the back.

Drive-Ability
All was well with a quick fire up and the test track was no match for this restored C-10. All was fine with acceleration, panic stopping, and even handling was good with all functions operating as designed.

A very sedate and eye-catching color and really nicely done on this iconic must have generation and year C-10. Beautifully done, and now all you have to do is turn the key and off to work or play. Life does not get any better in this bowtie world.
