A heavily modified 1967 Chevrolet C10 is redefining what an Action Line pickup can be, combining classic short-bed styling with modern twin-turbo power and street-focused engineering. Priced at $56,999, the blacked-out build transforms one of Chevrolet’s most influential truck designs into a 1,200-horsepower-capable machine.
When Chevrolet introduced the C10 in 1967, the company shifted the perception of pickups by offering a lower, wider and more refined design that emphasized comfort alongside utility. Decades later, the short-bed variant has become a cornerstone of the classic truck market. This example pushes that legacy further with performance upgrades that place it firmly in high-performance territory.
At the heart of the build is a 416-cubic-inch LS3 V8 configured for forced induction. The aluminum LS3 block and heads are paired with an LS7 4.00-inch crankshaft, Cam Motion camshaft and ARP hardware. A FAST LSXRT intake and Holley mid-mount serpentine system support a CX Racing twin-turbo setup featuring T4 GT35 ceramic dual ball bearing turbos and an air-to-water intercooler. Fuel delivery comes from a HyFuel dual 340LPH pump system, managed by a Chevrolet Performance engine controller. The combination is engineered with 1,200 horsepower capability in mind.
An Animal 4L80E Revenger built transmission with a 3,200-stall torque converter sends power to a Strange Dana S60 rear end equipped with 35-spline axles and 3.73 gears with a TrueTrac posi. A Strange Engineering driveshaft and full CPP suspension system, including a rear C-notch, help manage the output. Four-wheel disc brakes, a Wilwood master cylinder and power steering provide control, while a 3-inch stainless steel exhaust underscores its aggressive intent.
Finished in deep black, the truck features filled stake pockets, a smoothed tailgate, billet hood hinges and one-piece side glass. LED lighting and a hidden fuel filler integrated into the marker light maintain a clean profile. A spray-in bedliner and 17-gallon fuel tank mounted under the bed enhance practicality.
Inside, a red vinyl bench seat contrasts sharply with the exterior. Dakota Digital VHX gauges, a Painless wiring harness, Bluetooth-enabled vintage-style radio and an aftermarket sound system with a 10-inch subwoofer bring modern convenience to the classic cab. With just 5,587 miles and fewer than 6,000 miles on the drivetrain, the truck remains road-ready. Air conditioning, working gauges and lighting systems are operational, though the horn is not functioning.
The result is a C10 that respects its heritage while embracing contemporary performance engineering in dramatic fashion.
