1971 Chevrolet C-10 Shortbed Pickup

Muscle Car Garage USA:

We are a private collection of 60's and 70's muscle cars. We also do restorations in our two locations in the Jacksonville and Orlando area. From time to time we decide to offer one of our collector cars up for sale. Our vehicles are usually full "nut and bolt" restorations and are the quality of a regional or local show car winner. Many of our cars are previous trophy winners. We are not dealers just car enthusiasts who have been collecting cars for years and performing restorations to the level of regional show car quality. We are not a concourse restorer, nd many of our cars are trailered to events but most vehicles can be driven if you choose to do so.

Exterior is not perfect but nice. Tailgate has 4 small dings in it from an incident and one spot near the latch but no paint is removed. (Seepicture)Truck bed was used as a truck would be long ago so it had some dents and rust areas that were repaired by the body shop and also why we elected to go with a tinted uerthance bed liner. Looks much nicer now. (see picture)

Engine Bay & Mechanical:

Drivetrain is a small block Chevrolet motor hooked to a Turbo 350 transmission and 10 bolt rear end. Motor is stock aside from an Edelbrock aluminum intake and 4 barrel carb. Motor runs strong and cranks up immediately every time. Transmission has trans cooler and shifts smoothlyas it should. Brakes are disc up front with new calipersand drum in the rear that were rebuilt. Motor has been upgraded to electronic ignition. Truck has dual exhaust with new mufflers with exhuast ending just in front of the rear differential for that nice rumble. All electrical wiring works as it should including all lighting, urn signals,wipers, orn, ash lights, ourtesy lights, icense plates lights, as gauge,etc. The only thing not working is the speedometer and I am not sure why? We added an aftermarket temperature gauge under dash due to only having the factory "idiot" light. Truck runs cool and has a recent Optima battery. Motor has no leaks and is detailed nicely under hood. Truck is very reliable and we have driven it over 100 miles multiple times to local car shows with no issues.
