Haggerty Insurance Vehicle Rating has proclaimed that vintage trucks are now dominating the collector car market. They also added that of the trucks, the Chevy C/K 10 is now the hottest vehicle on the collector car market. Truck Trend Network announced that the Chevrolet C/K pickup has achieved icon status.

The second generation of C/K pickups have been dubbed the Glamour Pickup Era. GM charmed consumers with good looks, more creature comforts, and several engine options.

Building on the successful first series of C/K pickup, Chevrolet launched a revised version in 1967. Nicknamed the Action Line by Chevrolet. Consumers and enthusiasts soon developed their own nickname, the Glamour Pickup Line. GM completely revamped the trucks, exposing them to a whole new market share. The vehicle line that had previously been for work purposes alone had morphed into a vehicle capable of satisfying the criteria of work, daily transportation, and recreation. Better suspension for a smoother ride, comfortable interiors, and multiple engine and transmission options created a vehicle that even became a competitor to the popular car lines.

There are several factors that set this truck apart from others for sale online.

1) Most importantly, it is a body off restoration. There is a file of photos below to verify this. Only a small percentage of vehicles for sale are body off restorations, for obvious reasons. Cost prohibitive. A body off restoration can cost at least twice as much as a frame up restoration, involving 800-1,000 hours of labor.

4) This is not a C10. This is a K10, which means it is also the rare four wheel drive model.
