Description for Chevrolet C-10 1972

1972 Chevy C10 Short Bed (SWB): The most popular Chevrolet trucks with collectors are those built between 1967 and 1972. Several factors explain the collector popularity of these trucks. First, hey're just damn good looking!  To many, he lines of Chevy pickups in this styling series, articularly the 1969-1972 models, re a "classic" expression of what a pickup truck should look like. Second, ith this series Chevrolet offered truly carlike interiors,  complete with color-coordinated carpeting on the floor. Third, ll power accessories once found only on cars were now available on light trucks. A pickup from this "Integrated Styling" series could be equipped with air conditioning,  power steering, ower brakes, M/FM radio - virtually any accessory you could find on a car. Forth, nd perhaps best of all, ith Chevrolet's all-coil spring suspension, ickups of this series offered a ride as smooth as that of a  Chevy Bel Air sedan. Fifth, s an added bonus, hevrolet equipped its light trucks with a range of engines and transmission options that was nearly as wide as could be found in any of the company's car lines. Buyers could fit their  truck out for miserly fuel economy with a faithful six and three-speed transmission, r as an interstate cruiser with a high-powered V-8 and automatic transmission.  

This truck is the base you want for a C10  build of any flavor. A rust-free TX truck with all the good options (350 V8, uto, actory A/C, ower Steering, ower Disc Brakes, hort Bed, hrome Bumpers, ood Bed and Sliding Rear Window)  is the one all buyers want. I can say this because I have sold dozens of 69-72 C10s in the last 4 years. If my painter didn't have 5 jobs in front of this C10, t would not be for sale. It does run and drive but we have only put a few  miles on her. It would be safe to say that in addition to paint/body/interior that you will spend a little on mechanical needs. If you like the "patina" look then you would do a drivetrain swap, hrow on some new rims/tires, nd have a  fun daily driver for under $15k total. As you can see from the photo, here are no signs of major rust in the common areas or anywhere for that matter. This is a solid short bed that can be restored to a $40k truck after putting  another $10-15k into it. If you average the current NADA, BB, PI, nd Hagerty values you get exactly $40k. Miles are showing 111k. Video of truck running are avaialble upon request.
