This Chevrolet C/K (1960-1966) got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1965 Chevrolet C10 is a Fleetside pickup said to have been acquired by the current owner’s grandfather in 1966. A restoration was reportedly completed in 2012, and the exterior is finished in light blue over Fawn cloth upholstery. Power comes from a replacement 292ci inline-six paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission and a solid rear axle. Additional equipment consists of 15″ steel wheels, independent front suspension, tailgate locks, and a cassette stereo. This C10 is offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with a clean South Carolina title.

The truck is finished in light blue with a standard cab, an eight-foot bed, and an accenting white grille and bumpers. Additional features include bright trim on the mirrors and door handles, white Chevrolet painted lettering on the tailgate, an undercoated bed, and C10-specific badging. The floor edges, inner and outer rockers, fender bottoms, and lower cowl reportedly had rust removed and new metal welded in prior to being repainted. A horn is mounted in the front wheel well.

A two-spoke steering wheel frames a rectangular instrument panel with a horizontal 100-mph speedometer and auxiliary instrumentation for coolant temperature, charging, oil pressure, and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 81k miles, approximately 1k of which were added after the restoration. True mileage is unknown.
