If you gave a child a crayon and a blank sheet of paper and had them draw a truck you’d get something resembling a second-generation Chevrolet C/10. No, your kid isn’t a Chevy savant and no, it’s not because it isn’t well designed, in fact, quite the opposite. The C/10’s simplistic style with smooth “fleetside” or fendered “stepside” bed options give it a quintessential look which has survived way beyond the generations that made it popular.
However, this 1970 second-generation C/10 has flourished in the decades since it hit the roads and undergone some more modern upgrades along the way. In 1970 the C/10 got an engine upgrade having its 396 V8 replaced by the 400 V8 (402 ci). However, this ’70 has gone one further opting for a 1978 454. And with new or rebuilt parts abound on this classic pickup it provides a perfect daily driver or jumping off point for a build celebrating the C/10 and embracing its resurgence in recent years.
