Not Your Granpa's Farm Truck

     Up for auction is this Stunning '66 C10 Custom SWB. Just finished a complete nut & bolt restoration. Every panel. part. piece. nut. & bolt have been painted. refurbished. or replaced. This is pretty much a Brand New Truck! I love the body lines & style the mid 60's had & this truck does not disappoint.

     I wanted to build a classic cruiser that took us back to a simpler time. I think now days we are always in such a hurry & so used to technology making things easier?  I think we need to just slow down & enjoy the beautiful things in life. So I went with a body & style that is rarely seen. Instead of a chromed out motor & a glossy paint ( that's been done for a half century) I wanted a flat outside. glossy inside. & there is not a single piece of chrome on this truck. I almost nicknamed it Anti-Chrome. Even though I kept this project Super Clean & Super Simple. I still did some modern up grades like Power Disc Brakes. Alternator. & Seat Belts!

    One thing I had to do was install a complete Independently Adjustable Air Ride Suspension. This thing rides like a Cadillac & drives like a Dream! Also added a wireless remote control so when you pull up some where & get out. you don't have to crawl out of it. because its setting on the ground. Instead you can pull up at normal ride height get out & as your walking away you hit the button & she drops to the ground!

   This Beauty is coated with GM's color Flame Red. I could have saved time by painting the whole truck a solid color inside & out. but I'm a perfectionist & not known for taking the easy way out. There is actually 4 different colors on this truck. The inside interior is a Gloss Black with just the right amount of Red accents. Everything except for the sheet metal & few things I wanted to keep original is new. Below I will try & list most of everything I can think of that's been done.

Brand new suspension. New Ball Joints. Tie Rods. Pitman Arm. Idler Arm. Spindles. Shocks. Even the steering Rag Joint.

Complete Air Ride Suspension. 8. 1/2 Quick Air Valves. Twin Air Compressors. Cab Mounted Pressure Gauge. 5 Gallon Air Tank. 4. 2500lbs Bags & a Dual 7 Switch Controller with a Wireless Remote.

Power Disc Brake Conversion. New Rotors. Calipers. Pads. Drums. Lines. Shoes. Master Cylinder. Brake Booster. Fluid. & Bearings.

Engine is a Newer Vortec 5. 7L V8 with a Performance Camshaft. New Gasket set. Belts. Hoses. Clamps. Plugs. Wires. Cap. Rotor. Rebuilt Edlebrock Carb. Alternator. & Serviced With Mobil One Full Synthetic Motor Oil.

Transmission is a GM TH350. B&M Shifter. New Module. Output Shaft Seal. Gasket. & Filter.

Putting all this power down to the pavement is a Heavy Duty GM 12 Bolt Rear End with a 4:11 Gear Ratio. For Shoes it has 4 Brand New 265/75r15 Tires.

Cooling is a Harrison Radiator & Thermostatically Controlled Electric Fan.

Interior Has New Seat Belts. Some New Gauges. Mostly New Wiring. New Blower Motor. Some New Switches. New Loop Style Molded Carpet. New Windshield. Tinted Windows. & Completely New Weatherstripping Throughout. Including the Vent Window's Weatherstripping.

     The Rear Frame was Boxed & Bridged with over the Axle Air Ride So that if anyone wanted to pull something. the truck could handle the weight. I did not want to put a bed floor in & cover this work of art permanently. So Instead I used a Black Max Vinyl Bed cover that really gives the truck a nice touch.

       There has been tons & tons of hours of body work in this Beauty. This was a 50 year old work truck that didn't have such an easy life. but as far as I know it has been a Southern truck its whole life & was practically rust free! There is still some minor imperfections. but I cant stand a Ridiculously Over Priced Trailer Queen! This is a truck built to be Driven. Enjoyed. & most importantly Affordable!

     I have receipts for everything done to this beauty. Also have pics from start to finish. This truck is very affordable at 23k. which is a very fair & competitive price.   I have the reserve set much lower though. When you think about what a new truck costs. this price is a Win. Win for everybody.

    I have a Clear Blue TX Title in hand & feel free to contact me with any questions. comments. or to set an appointment to come see this work of art in person.
