Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 27th year in classic car and memorabilia sales! If you appreciate a classic, original, unrestored truck, then this 1968 Chevrolet C10 Fleetside Long Bed is for you! This truck embodies what made Chevy pickups legendary: dependability, simplicity, and rugged good looks that still turn heads today!

Originally purchased brand new in Shreveport, Louisiana at Chevyland Chevrolet, this C10 has had only two owners since new — with the second caring for it from 1978 to the present day. It's a true Southern survivor that's never been over-restored or disguised; what you see is the real deal.

Under the hood, it retains its original 307 cubic inch V8 engine (suffix code WA), paired with the classic Rochester 2-barrel carburetor and a 3-speed manual transmission (“3 on the tree”). It runs with that smooth, unmistakable small-block Chevy character. Other original-style features include manual steering and drum brakes all around, giving it the pure, mechanical feel that modern trucks just can't replicate.

This C10's Service Parts Identification tag confirms it's an authentic ½-ton Fleetside Long Bed built in St. Louis

The factory Saddle paint and solid Fleetside body give this truck an irresistible patina — the kind that can't be replicated with paint. It's not perfect, and that's exactly why people love it. Inside, the cabin has been tastefully refreshed with a new brown vinyl bench seat featuring a Highlander plaid insert, new floor mat, new door sills, and new weatherstripping throughout. Even the original window actuators were disassembled, cleaned, and regreased for smooth operation.

Everything works as it should — lights, blinkers, horn, and a new radio and speaker system add a touch of modern functionality. The heater core will need replacement for heat, and this truck was never equipped with factory A/C. It rides on Mastercraft Courser 31x10.50R15LT tires mounted to steel wheels with Chevrolet hubcaps, completing that honest, period-correct look.
This 1968 C10 is the definition of authentic Americana — a straight-shooting survivor with genuine history and character. Whether you choose to preserve its patina or make it your next restoration project, this is a truck that stands tall just the way it is!
