Chevrolet C-10 1963 Description
Up for sale is my recently completed 1963 C10 shop truck. This truck is clean title former California farm truck from Apple Valley. Main reason I bought this truck was for the awesome original paint that has became a beautiful patina finish (not cleared)PLATES NOT INCLUDED, clean title in my name and registered.
The following has been done to this pick up:
Brand new 350 crate engine from GM, NEW not rebuilt. I added a small camshaft (~440 lift) and put the engine together to look like it was factory.I used the original valve covers, installed a new intake manifold with an oil fill tube (PCV valve is installed but hidden), custom modified 1964 Cadillac air cleaner, HEI.All the boltons are new as well (water pump, fuel pump, alt, battery, hoses and belt).Stainless steel headers with a full new exhaust system with flowmaster mufflers.Radiator has been cleaned as well as the gas tank, heater core has been replaced.The transmission is a rebuilt TH350 with a NEW LOKAR shifter, its very nice and looks like the stock manual one.
Suspension has been rebuilt with all NEW shocks, lowering spring, power disc brake conversion with McGaulys drop spindles, lower ball joints and tie rods, pan hard bar.
New tires 205 75 15, its is still a 6 lug, 66 chevelle caps.
Interior is all original except the seat has been reupholstered, and a carpet kit installed. New oil and temp gauges put in.
All new glass installed including the windshield, new driver side window regulator. Wipers work with new arm and blades.
Exterior paint is original GM weathered by mother nature and the life as a farm truck, bunch of bumps and bruises.This truck is 99% rust free, only small amount in the driver side door, cab corner and fender, practically unnoticeable unless you are looking for it.The bed is the original wood which pretty hard to find on 50+ year old truck.+Customized rear bumper
As with any classic there a few thing that need to be finished, fuel gauge stopped working, heater blower doesn't work (have not looked into it), rear glass needs to be put in (glass and seal included)For cruising around town this truck is great but for long distance or high speed it going to need different gears (has 4.11's and with a small tire at that)Also the rear brakes are none automatic adjustable, They are rebuilt but act kinda funny with the disc brakes (no problem stopping)
Please ask any questions, I'm sure I'm forgetting something
Please see video of it running
