The Chevy C-10 was part of the C/K series of trucks that GM built from 1960-02, with the “C” standing for 2-wheel drive and “K” for 4-wheel. The second generation of these transports was produced from 1967-72, also referred to as the “Action Line”. This 1968 edition of the C-10 is a project that needs completion and – to sweeten the pot – it comes with a crate motor and new TH-350 automatic transmission. Located in N. Augusta, South Carolina, the pick-up is available here on eBay where the bidding has reached $3,300 and there is no reserve.

Renewed for the 1967 model year, the C/K trucks would continue to utilize their drop-center ladder frame and coil-sprung rear axle, but the body was redesigned from the ground-up. GM was trying to shift the image of their trucks from being simple utilitarian vehicles to ones that families might want to use, too, with features found in GM sedans, like AM/FM radio, carpeting, and two-tone paint. The series would see few changes in 1968, with the availability of big-block V8s being the big news that year.

The seller began to restore this ’68 C-10 but work has come to a halt. This pickup is the long-bed version for hauling more and bigger stuff. We’re told there is “some rust in the normal places,” but what if you don’t know what the normal places are? The photos provided show mostly surface rust and faded white over blue paint. The front bumper is missing, and we don’t know if it’s still hanging around.

A huge step in the right direction is that a new 5.3-liter V8 engine has been sourced, along with a new  tranny and torque converter. But the photos show them in various stages of assembly. For example, one pic shows the engine back in the truck bed, while another shows it perched up front. A new MSD ignition is being provided as well as a new front suspension, which appears to have been installed. New tires are also part of the package.

The interior is largely disassembled, but the bench seat has been retained. The buyer will have to find a new steering column, so pushing it around to load may be a little tricky. And a new dash pad will be required as well as door panels. This pickup came with factory air conditioning, but we don’t know if that hardware has survived. Vintage trucks are in demand right now and Hagerty estimates a super nice one of these C-10s can top $25,000.
