Description

This 1965 Chevrolet C10 has that attraction where an honest day's work meets intricate detail and style. It's the kind of appeal that comes from a real truck that can be put to real use, but still turn heads no matter at a cruise-in or a hardware store run.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. The doors shut with authority, and the tailgate leads to a real wood truck bed... It's the kind timeless package that, just like a hard day's work, always gets respect. The bright red paint attracts attention with a more modern luster that looks great in the sunshine. And with the contrasting white bumpers and wheels, it balances it out the appearance so that the overall impression is a standout old-school pickup instead of too boisterous. So while others will be showcasing a whole bunch of flash, you'll quietly be gaining fans as people discover the details like how the dealer etched its name across the whole rear bumper all those decades ago.It'll be easy to get comfortable inside with a simply and tastefully upholstered interior that is as enduring as the bodywork. Just a simple bench seat with neutral gray vinyl, durable rubber floor mats, and steel door panels that match the dash bring the interior together. A nice two-spoke factory wheel gives you a clear view of the original gauge panel and all your controls. And an AM/FM/cassette stereo is working fine, but really you're going to love the sound of the exhaust hum piercing the morning mist even more. This is basic and functional, but that's also how it's supposed to be. You're making a fashion statement that real pickups aren't fashion statements! Lift the hood and see a true marvel. Hardly any of the smooth running 231 cubic-inch straight-six engines 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. But with so many of those out there, it's refreshing to see something this honest. We're not alone. Those who want to sneak a peek at your stalwart C10 will expect something of this caliber in the engine bay. But beyond just appearance, at 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. This is the C10 that can make lumber run on Saturday, and then you can take it to the car show on Sunday. It has been maintained correctly to remind you of a hard day's work, and best of all, you can pick it up at a workman's price. Call today!!!
