1965 Chevrolet C10

Description

This 1965 Chevrolet C10 is that perfect mix of shining classic and honest pickup. And so for one great price, you can have a vintage ride that helps you with the chores on Saturday and steals the car show on Sunday.

You can instantly see that this Chevy is a cut above. After all, these trucks were often used and abused, but this one has been invested in to erase its decades as a workhorse. So it now showcases the nicely creased sheetmetal and artful design. It's also the perfect canvas for this premium paint. Just by the amount of luster alone, you can really see the advantage of investing in a modern shade of blue. Rivaling the paint for the shine is the restored brightwork. The grille has a 10,000-watt appearance, the bumpers are mirror-like, and the "Custom" trim on the cab is a great vintage touch. And those factory hubcaps can draw a crowd all on their own, especially with the optional side-mounted spare included.

It'll be easy to get comfortable inside with a simply and tastefully upholstered interior that's as enduring as the bodywork. Just a simple bench seat in an attractive black vinyl and matching durable rubber floor mats. Plus, the gold on the doors match the headliner and dash for a well-coordinated total package. A nice two-spoke factory wheel gives you a clear view of the original gauge panel and all your controls. You also get all the right features like heat/defrost and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. There's nothing too fancy to get in the way of the honest pickup appearance, which is exactly what real truck people love.

Lift the hood and see a true marvel. Hardly any of the smooth running 292 cubic-inch straight-six motors are seen in '60s vintage Chevy trucks anymore. Despite the fact that these anvils of a motor were the backbone for the company's dependability reputation, they get replaced by the small-block V8s. We understand why this happens and sell plenty of those custom trucks, too. But with so many of those out there, it's refreshing and rare to see money invested into making this original-style workhorse so tidy. We're not alone. Those who want to sneak a peek at your stalwart C10 will expect something this honest in the engine bay. But beyond just appearance, you can tell from the condition that this is still ready to go to work. It fires up easily, idles nicely, and pulls strong thanks to the control of the three-speed manual transmission. And the C10's rear trailing arm suspension adds some nice comfort not found in many other pickups.

This truck is always a talking piece. From its large displacement inline-six, to the real wood truck bed, to the shining presentation – it's all interesting and rewarding. So at a price this affordable, you know you have to hurry if you want to take it home. Call today!!!
