Utility Body on a 1961 C10 1/2 ton
Has anyone added a vintage (or vintage-looking) utility body on a 1960 or 61 Apache 10? I am re-creating a family business plumbing truck and I would like to know if anyone has done this. Thanks - GPK1961 Frisco TX

I have not added a utility bed but I do have a '63 short wheelbase that was originally built with a utility bed for GTE.

If you ever find a company that sells new ones for our truck post it up, many here would like to know.

Here is one that was posted on one of the many facebook groups for '60-'66 trucks. This is a brand new utility bed. I believe Knapeide made it.

Nice. Just looked on their Facebook page, Stile Truck Bodies in Turlock CA did that.

Re: Utility Body on a 1961 C10 1/2 ton
Thanks - nice pictures. That newer body looks great on that truck. The pictures I attached show, 1. A California truck that is the look I'm after and 2. My Grandfathers truck, only the top of utility body is visible. It was a Reading Body installed by Luby Chevrolet (Waltham MA) in early 1961. Thanks - GPK1961
