Chevy has made a lot of trucks over the course of
the past 100 years. But it's chosen this 1967 C-10 to customize in celebration
of its centennial. The C/K series formed the backbone of both the Chevy and GMC
truck lineups for four decades. After the first of four generations was
introduced in 1960, the second hit the scene in '67 with the model you see
here.
Little in the way of details were released to
accompany these photos, but as you can see, the custom show truck has been
painted the same dark shade of blue as the Centennial Editions of its
successors.
It also wears a set of 10-spoke alloys, round
side-view mirrors, special badges, and an interior upholstered in such a light
shade of grey that it might as well be white. The sum total is what looks like
a flawlessly resto-modded truck that ought to represent the brand well in its
celebrations at both the State Fair of Texas this month and the SEMA show next.
So of all the trucks Chevy has made over the past
century, why the '67 C-10? Because that marked the halfway point along
the brand's history in the truck market. In fact there was even a 50th
Anniversary package offered on the '68 model, done up in a rather more
outlandish two-tone gold and white paint scheme.
