The engine is a 307 cubic inch V8, which provides plenty of power in the relatively lightweight C10, especially with a 4-speed behind it. The engine bay is clean but shows signs of having been used as intended, which means that it runs right and doesn’t have major issues. There’s Chevy Orange paint on the block, which probably isn’t original but like the bodywork, it could pass for it. A correct air cleaner, a modes carburetor that delivers decent fuel economy, and a nice-sounding single exhaust that’s pretty recent all mean that this is a truck that’s designed to be used. It starts easily and idles well, and the 307 is torquey enough to make driving it fun. The 4-speed shifts nicely and there are reasonable gears out back, so it’s quick enough for today’s traffic. The undercarriage is definitely original, and while there’s surface scale everywhere, there’s no critical rot and it looks like most of the stuff is original, including the spiral shocks out back. Handsome Rally-style wheels look great and are fitted with new 235/75/15 blackwall radials.
