The Appeal

In the United States, it has long been popular to restore "blue collar" vehicles; hard-working pick up trucks deemed deserving of veneration in their well-earned retirement. Outside the US, these restored trucks are seldom seen, so we're excited to bring this beautifully presented Chevrolet C10 to market.

Having undergone a comprehensive body-off restoration, this matching numbers Stepside Long Bed is surely among the best on the market today. As the photographs attest, this truck is in fine condition; even the underside is clean and shiny!

If you're looking for a show truck or simply want the best example of Chevy's venerable C10 you can get your hands on, this 1972 Stepside would be a great buy.
