1978 Chevy C10

A little rough around the edges, this Chevy truck is great as both a rolling conversation piece and an everyday truck that’s a bit out of the ordinary.

We recently found this gorgeous blue Chevrolet C10 for sale on Hemmings. The truck was found in Tennessee but is currently ready to be sold from North Miami Beach, Florida, and there’s no doubt about it, this truck is special.

The first thing you notice about this late-Seventies Chevrolet C10 is the color. The Hawaiian Blue stands out from the crowd. And the best part is how that awesome hue goes from the exterior into the matching interior. With 65-percent of the color from the original paint job, this Chevy screams “classic truck,” but, because it’s a tough and reliable Chevy, it is still great to use as a daily driver. The private seller is currently asking $12,900, which seems like a steal.

But don’t let the exterior fool you, this truck is no slouch under the hood. With a “fresh” 350ci 4 bolt main V8 that is mated to a 350 turbo transmission, the C10 is a truck that reportedly rides and drives amazingly, while sounding great to boot. Equipped with power steering and power brakes, this Chevrolet C10 has already become our obsession of the week.
