1972 Chevrolet C10 Custom Deluxe long bed with a replacement 350, clean title and an early $6,000 bid
Early bidding on a running, titled long-bed C10; worth watching until the last day.
1972 Chevrolet C10 Custom Deluxe
Why we picked it
Why we picked it: this is a two-tone 1972 C10 Custom Deluxe long bed with a replacement 350 the seller says was installed in 2013 and has about 23,000 miles on it, backed by a three-speed automatic. It has an Edelbrock four-barrel and intake, and recent work includes a starter, heater core, brakes, exhaust and a spray-in bedliner. It comes with a clean Texas title in the seller's name.
The current bid is $6,000 with 11 days left, while comparable driver-grade long beds sold for $16,750 to $26,250 this fall. Bids usually climb near the end, so treat the current number as a starting point, not a final price. Long beds are also the classic base for a lowered shop-truck or short-bed conversion build.
The value check
The current bid is $21,400. Comparable cars in the same condition have sold for $16,750–$26,250, so the middle of the market is about $21,500. Bids usually climb in the final hours, so the discount will likely shrink.
Driver-grade 1967-72 C10 long beds sold for $16,750 to $26,250 at BaT, Hagerty and Mecum in Sep-Oct 2026. The $6,000 bid plus Hagerty's 5% fee is about $6,300, roughly 71% under the $21,500 midpoint, but the auction runs until Nov 16 and bids usually climb.

What to check
- The seller notes underside corrosion; check cab corners, rocker panels, floor pans and the bed floor
- It has an oil leak and the A/C does not blow cold
- The paint has scratches and needs correction; it has been repainted
- The replacement engine means it is not numbers-matching; mileage is listed as TMU (true mileage unknown)
- Hagerty adds a buyer's fee (about 5%) to the hammer price
Making it drive like new
A drop-spindle and flip-kit lowering, a front disc brake upgrade with a dual master cylinder, and a 700R4 or 4L60E overdrive would make it a much better highway truck. The leaky 350 is also a good reason to plan an LS swap.
