Overview of 1963 Chevrolet C10 Restomod For Sale by Owner

This 1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Custom is a fully realized show truck that combines elite craftsmanship with modern performance, backed by an impressive list of accolades and appearances. Built by Justin Nichols and his team, this truck underwent a complete frame-off transformation, starting from bare metal and reengineered into the stunning machine you see today. It was revealed at SEMA, earned a Goodguys award, and has been showcased at World of Wheels, while also being featured in Classic Truck Magazine, Wrench’d TV, and ScottieDTV. Showing just 2,047 miles since the build, this C10 remains in exceptional condition and represents a rare opportunity to own a nationally recognized custom with true show pedigree and street-ready performance.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Custom is a seamless blend of classic design and high-end customization. Finished in Tuxedo Black with a contrasting Polar White roof, the truck’s proportions have been subtly refined with a 2-inch shortened frame and bed, giving it a perfectly balanced stance. A raised wood bed floor conceals the AccuAir e-level air suspension system, while a handmade tailgate and roll pan clean up the rear profile. Unique touches such as 1990 Cadillac taillights and a custom front grille paired with a GMC hood set this truck apart from typical builds. Sitting on massive custom wheels with red Wilwood calipers, the truck delivers both presence and performance in equal measure. The interior of this 1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Custom is equally detailed, featuring a custom two-tone tan leather bench seat with red stitching and a split-folding back. The cabin showcases thoughtful craftsmanship, including pinstriping throughout and a clean integration of modern technology. Dakota Digital gauges provide a contemporary display, while a retro-style Bluetooth stereo and upgraded speakers bring modern convenience without sacrificing the vintage aesthetic. Comfort is enhanced with Vintage Air climate control, and features like push-button start and an Ididit tilt steering column ensure an enjoyable driving experience. Every detail inside reflects the same level of care and execution as the exterior.

Engine

At the heart of this build is a 5.3L LS V8, a naturally aspirated and electronically fuel-injected powerplant known for its reliability and strong performance. The engine bay itself is a centerpiece, having undergone extensive metalwork with custom covers and smoothed inner fenders, all accented by detailed pinstriping. Paired with a heavy-duty 4L80E automatic transmission, the drivetrain is built to handle power with ease while delivering smooth operation. Power is sent through a 12-bolt rear end equipped with 31-spline axles and a 3.90:1 gear ratio, supported by a four-link rear suspension system and AccuAir setup for optimal ride quality and adjustability. A 3-inch stainless steel exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers completes the package, providing a deep, aggressive tone that perfectly matches this truck’s award-winning presence.
