There are more and more online Restomod pickupsthat have been extremely heavily modified by their owner in order to get as much attention as possible. Whether shrill colors, a lot of chrome or foiling that takes getting used to, the tuners leave no stone unturned to create a very special copy of their pickup that should stand out from the crowd. But it is also very different, and thus perhaps even more individual, than when you install more and more chrome and bling-bling on a vehicle. And that is when you simply refine a classic discreetly and thus leave it closer to the original. This is exactly the tactic chosen by the owner of this 10 Chevrolet C1968, which is now for sale in the US for US $ 23.900.

The red and black C10 completely dispenses with chrome, and even the chrome bumpers, which were installed as standard, have been removed by the owner in order to ensure an absolutely matter-of-fact and clean style, which is completely different from the usual cliché of an old American. Only the 20-inch models still have chrome, but these have a steel rim look, so only absolute car connoisseurs can see at first glance that they are chrome rims. The paintwork is also very subtle, the upper half is kept in red, while the lower side is completely black. In order to achieve a floating effect, red and black are separated by very thin silver stripes, giving the impression that the cabin is floating freely above the rest of the body. This timeless and elegant style is very rare at Restomods, but we think it goes perfectly with the oldie and gives the Chevy its very own character.

Everything in the interior is red and black.

The interior blends in perfectly with the style of the exterior, as it speaks the same design language as the body with its black, full-length seat, the black and red cockpit and the red door panels. From our point of view, this results in a perfect symbiosis that is unparalleled in the rest of the world.

The engine was not upgraded.

The chrome parts, which are largely absent on the exterior, can be found in the engine compartment, where various modifications have been made to refine the engine compartment. On the other hand, nothing has changed in the performance of the 5,7 liter V8 naturally aspirated petrol engine, because it is still 256 hp. In our opinion, this is a respectable achievement for a model that has been around for more than 50 years, and the performance is certainly still impressive today. But with this cool oldie you don't want to accelerate all the time, but rather decelerate, while bringing back the driving and lifestyle of bygone times.

Our conclusion on the Chevrolet C10:

From our point of view, this perfectly restored and prepared C10 is a dream for every US car fan. Cruising comfortably on the highway or the autobahn, listening to Woodstock songs on the radio and beaming yourself back in time, that must be a great feeling for all vintage lovers who want a vehicle like this.
