1963 Chevrolet C10 Pickup
1963 Chevrolet C-10
1963 Chevy C10 Pickup. Engine is a 350 with an automatic transmission. This truck is now located in Des Moines Iowa but came from Portland Oregon. The guy we purchased it from drove it from Oregon to Iowa.
Let me start with the good: (1) The body is straight with minimal rust for the year. The hood is just surface rust and hasn't started to eat into the metal. (2) The truck starts and runs. (3) The frame has no rust.
We have had several body shops come by to give an estimate on what it would take to make this truck looknew with no flaws. Theestimates range from$6000.00 to$8000.00. All the body shop reps raved at how straight the body is. They allsaid the most difficult fix will be the cracks in thefront corners of the hood as seen in the pictures. It will also need a new bed. I priced the kits out and they average around$800.00 for the wood and chrome.
The story on this truck is that an old man in Portland owned it and kept it in his barn. His widow sold it with only 25k miles on it to another old man.He changed the engine out and started to paint the interior.This manpassed away just when he got started and it sat in his barn for many more years. The engine runs, nd one of the sons drove it from Portland to Des Moines adding oil the entire way. It needs new gaskets and seals but seems to run strong. I would recommend trailering the truck to it's new destination.
