We have a wonderful one for you again Restomod project discovered. And a visually very simple one Chevy C10 single cab the second generation based on a C / K with a short loading area. And the classic has prepared to tear various Ford Mustangs to pieces when it matters. Because the C10 actually has one LS3 racing engine under the hood. And the vehicle is just off Premier Sports Cars sold at the price of 109.900 US Dollars. This is almost twice as much as is currently being called for a brand new 2021 Silverado 1500 with a high equipment line, but considering the countless hours of work and the components installed, the price is reasonable, as we think. Let's start with the most important! And with that Don Hardy 6,8 liter LS3 racing engine (418-ci) under the hood.
1972 Chevrolet C10 restomod
He has loads of high quality components for one performance increase on 621 PS and the C10 should hardly be more than 1,5 tons bring on the scales. This guarantees that it will even be on the quarter mile will cut a fine figure. And so that a good 10-second time comes out in the end is a Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission installed instead of a tired automatic. Other modifications are a big one Aluminum cooler, there was a coilover, a new Rack and pinion steering, sports brake system from the house Baer with 14 inch (approx. 36 cm) discs and six-piston brake calipers at the front (rear 13 inches (about 33 cm) and four-piston) and the V8 gets the "food" from one Rick's custom aluminum tank. For the wheelset, the choice fell on 19 inch forged wheels There were even 20 inchers on the front and rear axles. The wheelset is equipped with Michelin Pilot sport rubbers. The body of the C10 has been partially freed from unnecessary trim and relies on a color scheme White black with a combination of chrome details.
