The Chevrolet C10 Apache pickup is part of the hallowed C/K Series that was replaced by the Silverado lineup in 2002. The first generation of the C/K series debuted for the 1960 model year and was supremely versatile. Buyers could pick from ½, ¾, or 1-tonne trucks with rear- or four-wheel-drive and even a cab chassis with no bed. The C10-C40 was also known as the Apache, and what we've got here is a 1961 Chevrolet Apache Pickup that's said to be almost all original. It comes with two keys and a spare tire as well.
Gleaming with a captivating blue paint job reminiscent of a clear sky on a beautiful day, this 1961 Chevrolet C10 Apache Pickup catches the eye wherever it goes. Adding a touch of charm are the American Racing wheels, complemented by low-profile tires that enhance its overall appeal. The truck bed, showing signs of use, exudes character, accentuated by its lacquer wood finish. Additionally, the window glasses, chrome details, and rear lamps remain in good condition, a testament to the care given to this vintage truck. Stepping inside, you'll discover a gray interior featuring a single bench seat capable of accommodating up to three adults, although two would find it more comfortable. As work trucks of this era prioritized functionality over luxury, amenities are understandably modest. However, you'll find a push-button radio in the dash, providing a touch of entertainment. Please note that we cannot guarantee its functionality. The driver is greeted by a simple yet informative gauge cluster, while gear shifting is achieved through a three-on-the-tree shift pattern. Though unconventional by modern standards, you'll quickly adapt to this unique setup within minutes of driving this 1961 Chevrolet Apache Pickup, adding to the nostalgic driving experience.
While vehicles like the 1961 Chevrolet Apache Pickup may not boast highly-strung sporty engines with stratospheric horsepower outputs, their reliability holds immense value for pickup truck owners. Underneath the hood of this classic truck, you'll discover a dependable 235.5ci in-line six-cylinder 'Stovebolt' engine. When it was brand new, this engine was rated for a respectable 135 horsepower and 217 lb-ft of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels through a three-speed manual gearbox, featuring the column shifter mentioned earlier. This combination ensures a reliable and straightforward driving experience, prioritizing durability and functionality over high-performance aspirations.
