Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1960 Chevrolet C10
Apache for your consideration. This clean Pickup comes in a powder
blue and white two-tone paint job complemented by a matching
interior. Powering this Apache is a rebuilt 283ci V8 paired to a
rebuilt three-speed manual transmission. This Apache decodes as a
true 1960, 2WD, 1/2 ton long bed, pick-up/ step side, and was built
in Kansas City. This truck received a full frame-off restoration
leaving no nut or bolt left untouched and it shows. This truck won
2nd place at the 2015 Autorama for its incredible restoration.

Launched in the fall of 1959 as a 1960 model, the first-generation
C/K debuted a number of design changes for General Motors'
light-truck design. Replacing the Task Force range, the C/K was
developed from the start as a truck chassis, no longer sharing a
commonality with the GM A-body platform. Though developed as a
truck for the sake of durability, the C/K adopted several features
from cars into its design to increase its functionality. For pickup
trucks, the C/K trucks used a drop-center frame (allowing for a
lower cab and lower center of gravity) and the independent front
suspension was paired with a coil-sprung rear axle. In 1963, front
torsion bars were replaced by front coil springs (on
two-wheel-drive vehicles). While the first generation would not
undergo a comprehensive facelift or update, GM would make a series
of gradual changes to the model line throughout its production. For
1962, the hood was redesigned, with a new windshield and A-pillar
added to the cab for 1964. In a break from General Motors
tradition, this is one of the few generations of trucks not given
an in-house moniker. The C/K nomenclature was developed by GMC; "C"
denoted conventional cab, with "K" standing for 4x4 drive.
