Chevrolet C10 1982

Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to present this eye-catching 1982 Chevrolet C10 Stepside for sale. At first glance, it may look “normal”, but it’s most certainly anything but! Kevin Brasuell’s B&B Automotive (of Lufkin, TX) skillfully executed the House of Kolor “Katchme Kopper II” exterior, and it’s so nicely done that it could pass for factory paintwork. The copper-colored paint offsets the MAR-K red oak wood bed, which is equipped with stainless steel strips. Carrying the exterior theme into the interior, Brasuell selected another House of Kolor shade of copper, using “Katchme Kopper I” for a subtle transition. The tan and brown interior was outfitted by Starr Auto Trim (Livingston, TX), and it really complements the Katchme Kopper theme, and it looks almost new. The dash has been upgraded to house a full set of Autometer Sport Comp Gauges, so you’ve got a competition-inspired look, and much better data than the old warning light dash setup had. A Kenwood AM/FM/CD head unit sends the audio signal to the big JVC amp under the seat, and then out to the Infinity TriAx speakers hidden in custom enclosures behind the seat. A lot of love (and money) went into this build, but we haven’t even told you about the fun part yet! Under the hood is a Mast Motorsports 6.0L LY6 V8, which on the engine dyno put out 483.3 HP and 453.1 Lb-Ft of torque! Backing that potent bullet is a custom-built GM TH350 3-speed automatic transmission by Steptoe Transmissions (Lufkin, TX). Exhaust is handled by a 3-inch Magnaflow dual setup with stainless tips, so the sound is just right. This bad boy rides on a complete set of adjustable QA1 gas shocks, and Nitto-shod American Racing TorqueThrust wheels, so you’ll discover that it handles surprisingly well. Additional features of this cool ’82 C10 include cold R134a A/C, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Radial Tires, Seatbelts, and Tilt Steering Wheel. This is a very nicely executed restoration, and it’s ready for its next home. Call or email our Houston Showroom and get it before someone else does!
