Description

1965 Chevy C10 Stepside – The 1965 Chevrolet C10 was a cozy hauler as it packed a vinyl bench seat as standard and came with a wooden steering wheel. No complexities here as the interior of the C10 was spacious and practical. The ’65 model year was also the first of the pack to come with a standard in-dash air conditioning system. The doors would open far and wide for smoother ingress and egress. The entertainment was confined to just AM Radios and was just fine for the day and age. The cheap and easy availability of parts and sustainable construction has made the C10 trucks an easy pick to be worked and modified upon. These C10s easily come in the list of the best-modified bunch. The standard template includes swapping the engine for an LS, as the chassis is more than capable to take the new bunch of muscle.

This sexy C10 is the perfect truck for an owner who wants to just jump in, fire up the motor, and cruise in comfort to the local car shows. That’s what the builder had in mind when he initiated this project and while he didn’t get it 100% finished, what remains are only minor projects. He started by locating a solid frame and having it powder-coated. The front end and suspension were all upgraded before the 5.7 LS motor was installed. A set of American Racing 2-piece wheels were powder-coated black and wrapped in ZR-Rated Tires. On the interior, a custom seat, digital gauges and a sound system were his choices for ensuring fun future cruises. Really the only area unfinished is the A/C (if needed). This truck has seen less than 100 miles of asphalt since competition and our test drive found that everything present worked as it should. A list of options includes; 5.7L, Aluminum Heads, 102mm Intake, Headers, Aluminum Radiator w/Dual Electric Fans, Auto, RWD, Power Steering & Brakes, Relocated Fuel Tank, Chrome Mirrors, Chrome Front Bumper, Rear Rollpan Bumper, Wood Bed, Tinted Glass, Retro Stereo, Kicker Sub/Speakers/Amp, Dakota Digital Gauges, Tan Leather Bench, Comfort-grip Wood Wheel, Cloth Bowtie Floormats, 20″ Power-coated Wheels, & New Nitto NTSSS G2 ZR20 (22″ – rear) Tires! You can’t build a twin for our asking price so avoid the restoration shop nightmares and buy a truck you can truly enjoy!
