wheelbase Pioneer stereo with Kenwood speakers This freshly
restored 1962 Chevrolet C10 half-ton pickup truck blends the
classic look of the early 60s Chevrolet half-ton truck with a bevy
of modern features. The odometer shows 247 miles, which is
understood to be the miles since the restoration. This truck was
built at GM's Kansas City Leeds assembly plant (VIN code K) and is
finished in House of Kolor's Jet black overlain with clearcoat. The
paint, trim, glass and lights are all in excellent shape, as
expected. The truck's bodywork is solid and straight, the battery
appears new, the engine bay is extremely tidy, as is the new cargo
bed with its dark brown wood floor with stainless-steel trim. It
has a 127-inch wheelbase and a 5,000-pound gross vehicle weight
rating (GVWR). Finally, the chrome front bumper shine brilliantly.
This example has two-inch front drop spindles, new brakes, new fuel
lines, new rear shock absorbers and new exhaust. This C10 rolls on
Nitto NT420 radials, size 305/40R22 at all four corners. Each tire
is mounted on black Boss Motorsports alloy wheels. The wheels are
in excellent order while the tires are in very good shape. Under
that hood is a 383 CID V-8 engine with chrome headers, a Champion
radiator and an Oldsmobile air cleaner housing from the early to
mid-1960s. Backing this motor is a 700R4 four-speed automatic
transmission and the original differential. Driver convenience
features include power steering and power brakes with discs in
front. Completing the interior is a Pioneer infotainment system
with rectangular screen and Kenwood speakers. Launched in the fall
of 1959, the 1960 model year introduced a new body style of light
pick-up truck that featured many firsts. Most important of these
were a drop-center ladder frame, allowing the cab to sit lower and
independent front suspension, giving an almost car-like ride in a
truck. Also new for 1960 was a new designation system for trucks
made by GM. Gone were the 3100, 3200, and 3600 designations for
short �-, long �- and 3/4-ton models. Instead, a new scheme
assigned a 10, 20 or 30 for �-, �- and 1-ton models. Since 1957,
trucks were available from the factory as four-wheel drive and the
new class scheme would make this known. A C (conventional) in front
of the series number designates two-wheel rear drive while a K
designates four-wheel drive. Actual badging on Chevrolet trucks
carried the series name system from the previous generation for
1960 and 1961: the 10, 20, 30 and 40 series (C and K) were badged
as "Apaches," 50 and 60 series trucks were badged as "Vikings," and
the largest 70 and 80 series models were marked "Spartans." For
1960, C/K trucks were available in smooth "Fleetside" or fendered
"Stepside" versions. GMC called these "Wide-Side" and "Fenderside."
Half-ton models were the C10 and K10 long-bed and short-bed trucks
and the 3/4-ton C20 and K20, as well as the one-ton C30, were also
available. GMC did not use the "C" nomenclature, though their 4x4
versions used the "K" nomenclature. If you want a classic truck
that's a great driver with plenty of power and updated options,
this is the one you should see in person. Come by MotoeXotica
