Appearances can be deceiving. Just look at this old Chevy C10, of the type GM built back in the 1960s.
Looks pretty beat up, doesn’t it? The wheels tell a different story: this is a full Pro Touring-spec autocross machine, built to dice up the twistiest of improvised racetracks.
Built by South African tuner RACE!, this old pickup is dropped to the tarmac and fitted with a set of Forgiato Formula modular alloys. While they may look a little incongruous with the patina’d bodywork, the low-key black finish matches the lower front fascia well, and at any rate doesn’t betray the truck’s true nature as much as a shinier set of shoes would.
So the next time you see what looks like a beat up old jalopy, take a good look at the rolling stock before you go challenging it to an impromptu drag race.
