1961 Chevrolet C-10 Custom Cab

This could very well be the G.O.A.T as far as "THE" look in Chevrolet Trucks.
1961 C10/Apache. I bought this truck to re-sale from a local gentlemen that owned it for the past 29 years. I have 7 pages of service records since 1989.
This is the " ultimate" hot rodders dream and 100% natural patina. This would make a perfect shop truck !
The original 6cyl.,3 speed is gone. The powertrain was built not bought. Only the best pro's in our area built it. A 327/275 out of s 68 Impala SS was completely gone through. It was bored .30 making it a 331.A 292 Competition Cam, camel hump heads with 202 valves, Pete Jackson gear drive (instead of timing chai, makes truck sound like it has a blower on it),Ram Horn exhaust manifolds, aluminum Edlebrock polished 4 bbl carbeurator, and a chrome open element breather were used.
The transmission is TH350 with a shift kit and a B&M shifter and small stall. It will bark second almost every time out.
A 10 bolt rear end with 3 90 gears (peg leg).
There is no rust on the frame ! The original independent torsion bars are still on the front suspension, it still has the manual drum brakes and manual steering. There are no fluid leaks on this truck-amazing.
Now for the body. It's a factory Custom Cab SWB, Fleetside Yes, the B-Pillar molding is there. The body side molding is not, but the mounting holes are. So it has the BIG rear window, wrap around windshield, and my favorite feature-THE SAME DASH SIMILARITIES AS THE EARLY 60'S CORVETTE. It was a factory radio delete truck, and can you believe the dash has never been cut ? It does have factory heater that works great. The seat is out of an early 90's Chevrolet Truck, so it is real comfortable. An old blanket would look good draped over it and look good with the trucks' theme.
There is some rust in both rockers and lower front corners of both doors. The original paint color was black and has been touched back up with primer black. The hood is off of a 63 model and fits perfect( but the 61 model hood comes with this auction). The hood on it is still in primer grey. All of the body lines and gaps are impressive to say the least. This truck came with and still retains a wooden bed floor. It still has the blue dot tail lights. All of the electrical, including the interior light, work flawlessly.
This truck also has dual chambered exhaust which gives it an awesome heartbeat. It also has new Hankook 15" tires all the way around. 31x10.50 15 on rear and 235/75R15 on front. 15x8 6 lug rally wheels on back and 15x7 on front. All of them have the chrome Chevrolet 3 prong spinners for the center caps. The chrome front and rear bumpers are still on the truck, as well as the original chrome grill.
If I am leaving anything out that you need to know, please send me your phone number through eBay messages and I will call you. This truck could be an everyday driver or finished to your taste easily.
