Offered here is a 1972 Chevrolet C10 short-bed pickup fully and professionally converted to a �Pro Street� racer. The accompanying list provides details on the quality of the components used to bring the truck to this level. Since this spectacular restoration and build were completed, the C10 has traveled just 447 miles. Here�s how David Freiburger, the editor of Hot Rod magazine, on the origin and definition of the term: �A Pro Street car must be drag racing-oriented and have wheel tubs under the back end that allow for oversized, very wide tires to be fit under the stock body. That's fact. As for my opinion, a Pro Street car is typically also stock bodied and ostensibly street driven. When the style originated in the mid to late '70s, it was inspired by the NHRA drag racing Pro Stock class of the mid '70s, hence where the �Pro� in Pro Street came from.� This light-blue-and-white over black �71 C10 fully meet�s Freiburger�s definition. As part of its frame-off restoration, the truck�s exterior sheet metal has been restored to like-new, stock condition. There are no flaws, and the finish is uniformly lustrous across the entire truck, including the cargo body. The truck�s stock appearance has been maintained from its single headlight black grille to the �Chevrolet�-embossed tailgate. Chrome trim, including bumpers, side mirror, door handles, and grille trim, is in pristine condition. Factory badging is limited to the blue-bowtie grille emblem and �CST10� front-fender emblems common to the entry-level pickups of the day. The chrome 5-spoke wheels could be just an appearance add-on. But any �stock� impression comes to an end with a quick appraisal of the truck's definitely-not-stock stance, and a look inside the rear fenders where massive Mickey Thompson drag slicks deliver a compelling impression of �ber-performance. The truck�s black-themed interior is built from custom TMI� components. Horizontally pleated black leather covers the bucket seats, center armrest, and console (with cupholders). Door trim has been reimagined in leather with vertically pleated inserts. A light-blue, period-correct, sport steering wheel with Impala-and-race-flags center emblem frames a stock appearing instrument cluster set in a black-and-chrome panel (the remainder of the dashboard is painted light blue). In fact, all the white-faced gauges�160-mph speedometer, 10,000-rpm tachometer, analog clock, and fuel-level, alternator-output, coolant-temperature, oil-pressure gauges� are Velocity Classic Instruments� aftermarket upgrades. The controls for the air suspension are mounted below the dash. Stock-appearing heating and ventilation slide-lever controls, a stock-appearing push-button radio, and the stock glove box complete the dash. Under the hood, all semblance of �stock� vanishes completely with the sight of the purpose-built, 403-cubic-inch V8 (generating 444 ft-lbs of torque) professionally created by Performance Engineering. MSD� ignition, an aluminum radiator, billet-aluminum hardware, and steel-braided fuel lines are all in place. A chrome-trimmed air cleaner and �Performance Engineering�-branded black valve covers add even more flair to a perfectly organized, spotless engine bay. Viewed from below, the truck�s chassis is similarly pristine. The custom exhaust headers, x-routed dual-exhaust system, and Detroit 12-bolt rear end are focal points. There is no damage whatsoever to the chassis, and no rust. Pro Street cars and trucks combine excellent show with no-b.s. go. This light-blue C10 is a perfect example of the breed. While we do our best to provide the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or owned by Past & Present Motor Cars we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. We list our vehicles on multiple websites and a vehicle can sell at any time. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.

Past & Present Motor Cars was founded in June of 2018 by Jack and Jeff and began in 2 small warehouses in Ocala and Winter Garden, Florida. After seeing the business have steady growth in the first year and a half in March 2020 we moved our Main Location in Winter Garden to a new location that at the time seemed huge. We were a little nervous to take on this larger building and higher rent but we knew we had to THINK BIG. After getting moved in, that was the start of Covid. Just after getting settled in we put signs on the door saying we were only open by appointment. While it was a tough time in the world it actually was a good time to be in the car business especially the classic car business and we continued to see steady growth. After 2 1/2 years in that location we proceeded to acquire 4 buildings and lease a 5th building. This allowed for the operation we have today with 150+ Classic Cars and a Service Department. We are still doing the same thing we have done everyday since we opened, Great Customer Service, Owners that are Available and Accessible for our customers and very happy to talk cars anytime anywhere. We will never grow too big to be real with anyone! Keeping our commitment to our customers through straightforward business and ALWAYS doing the right thing! We are the same people with the same commitment as the day we opened and our slogan is and remains:
