Video: Jay Leno’s Garage Profiles Holley Performance’s ’67 Chevy C10

From old-school carburetors to modern fuel injection, Holley Performance Products remains one of the industry’s leading providers of everything you need for fuel management. But beyond the performance products the company offers, there is also an undeniable passion that fuels the staff to make your ride the best it can be using their products.

No where is this more evident than in Holley’s ’67 Chevy C10 shop truck. Built as a demonstration vehicle, or as Holley CEO Tom Tomlinson calls it, “a rolling showcase” of Holley’s products, this classy restomod pickup is the perfect combination of old-school cool and modern performance. What more could you ask for from a performance company than proof you can have the best of both worlds using their products?

This week, the Holley Performance C10 visited Jay Leno’s Garage, giving the well-known comedian and his viewers an up-close look at just what kind of projects can be enhanced with Holley products. Check out the episode above!

While the Holley C10 may look like a vintage classic, complete with its original Sea Foam-esque paint scheme and white-trimmed grille, the truck is more of a modern performance machine than anything.

Want your modern LS engine to have the appearance of a classic big block? Well, Holley has a product for that!

Under the hood, you’ll find an all-aluminum, fuel-injected LS3 Corvette engine, which is topped off with a Holley coil cover and dual snorkel air cleaner, giving it the appearance of a more classic big block. Adding to the engine’s performance features is Holley’s HP EFI ECU- a self-tuning fuel management system that is basically plug and play but also offers manual tuning for those vehicle owners who are a bit more experienced with the tuning process.

With this system, the Holley C10 boasts about 500hp to the rear wheels.

Backing the engine is a T56 6-speed transmission tied to a classic Hurst shifter. The oil pan and motor mounts are Holley products, while the brakes are Baer components and the wheels are 19 and 20-inch knock-off Halibrand Indy Roadster wheels.

The Holley Performance Products Chevy C10 pickup even maintains its original paint scheme and factory-correct interior, giving it even more old-school appeal.

In addition to the c-notched frame (in the rear), the truck features a tubular control-arm suspension in the front with lowering spindles, and a truck arm suspension in the rear with coilovers.

The interior of the Holley Performance Products truck remains almost all factory-correct, with the addition of a Vintage Air air conditioning system.

Very clean cut and reliable, the Holley C10 certainly proves that you can have modern reliability while maintaining the vintage look of your vehicle. Of course, with a name like Holley backing the vehicle, this shouldn’t come as a surprise!
