1965 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck Restomod
This stunning 1965 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck is a custom 2wd
fleetside shortbed restomod, built from the ground up with a
body-off frame restoration. Every detail of this truck has been
carefully considered and expertly executed, resulting in a unique
street machine that seamlessly blends classic styling with modern
performance.
Exterior: The exterior of this C10 is finished in a striking
Spitfire Orange metallic paint, which gleams under the sunlight.
The sought after big window cab adds to its classic appeal, while
the sleek fleetside shortbed configuration gives it a muscular
stance. Custom touches like the stainless steel trimmed cedar wood
bed add a touch of elegance and warmth, contrasting beautifully
with the vibrant paintwork. Hidden tailgate latches and removed
chains maintain a clean, uncluttered aesthetic, while the seamless
body lines showcase the craftsmanship of the restoration.
Engine and Transmission: Powering this C10 is a potent 283ci V8
engine, equipped with an Edelbrock 4bbl carburetor, aluminum
intake, and a flat tappet hydraulic cam, delivering smooth power
and a throaty exhaust note. The HEI ignition ensures reliable
starts and optimal performance, while headers and dual stainless
steel exhausts enhance both power and sound. Paired with a TH350
automatic transmission, shifting is smooth and effortless,
providing a driving experience that's as enjoyable as it is
exhilarating.
Chassis and Suspension: Beneath the surface, this C10 boasts a
modernized chassis with coil spring suspension front and rear.
Tubular upper and lower control arms up front and boxed truck arms
in the rear provide enhanced stability and control, allowing for
confident handling and precise steering. The 12-bolt rear axle with
3.08 gears delivers excellent acceleration and cruising capability,
while power steering and power front disc brakes ensure effortless
maneuverability and stopping power.
Interior: Inside the cabin, modern comfort meets vintage charm. The
Impala steering wheel mounted on a tilt steering column adds a
touch of retro elegance, while the modern replacement radio
provides access to your favorite tunes. The plush upholstery and
spacious seating invite you to relax and enjoy the ride, while the
modern air conditioning keeps you cool and comfortable even on the
hottest days.
Wheels and Tires: Completing the look are 18" chrome Ridler wheels
wrapped in Nitto Motivo tires, which not only enhance the truck's
aggressive stance but also provide excellent grip and traction on
the road.
Overall: This 1965 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Truck restomod is a true
testament to the timeless appeal of classic American trucks,
meticulously restored and tastefully customized for modern driving
enjoyment. With its seamless blend of classic style, modern
