My new 65 C10
I am so excited to have finally found a truck! I've always wanted a 64-66 C10 and this weekend I found the one for me...It has a 350/350 combo and it's pretty clean just some minimal surface rust....

No big plans for now, maybe just get it lower with some springs and clean up the interior a bit and then just drive it!!

Gotta get rid of the white walls....old bias-ply and all cracked.....

All in all, I think I got a really good deal on it.....

Great looking truck! I would say that it looks as if you have found a great start to a beautiful cruiser.

Re: My new 65 C10
Was that the truck for sale on Craigslist in Campbell area? If so, you scored big man.

Re: My new 65 C10
not sure if you knew but the bumper guards are from a square body. Your truck looks just like my dad's old one, very nice too!

It was for sale on craigslist locally here, but the details in the ad weren't very good. I bought it from an older, retired gentleman in Modesto. He had another 65' (asking $10k) much nicer with a 68' Vette engine in it. He also had a 57' Chevy in the garage (asking $24k for it), and in his side yard he had another 57' Chevy and a 49' Mercury (Flat black with all of the chrome trim). Nice little collection...
