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.
This 1964 Chevrolet C10 Restomod has the look of a proper custom street truck and the hardware to make good on it. Showing just 475 miles, it packs a 6.2L LS3 V8, electronic fuel injection, a 4L80E 4-speed automatic, and a Ford 9-inch rear end into one seriously reworked classic Chevy platform. A custom frame, aftermarket suspension setup, and 4-wheel disc brakes give the truck a far more modern foundation underneath, while the black paint and copper-finished wheels bring the kind of stance and attitude that make a build like this hard to ignore. It is the sort of C10 that appeals as much to the person who wants to inspect every detail at a show as it does to someone who simply wants to fire up an LS-powered classic and enjoy the drive.
This 1966 Chevrolet C10 combines the clean, squared-off look of Chevrolet’s first-generation C/K pickups with a straightforward small-block V8 restomod treatment. Showing approximately 70,291 miles, it is finished in a striking Orange and Gray two-tone exterior over a Black interior. Under the hood sits a 350ci V8 equipped with an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake manifold, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Aftermarket headers, wheels, steering wheel, gauges, and audio equipment add to the truck’s customized character, while the wood bed floor with metal strips keeps a classic pickup-truck element intact.
This 1978 Chevrolet C10 Silverado brings together classic square-body styling with a selection of upgrades that give it a more personalized street-truck character. Showing approximately 70,132 miles, this example is powered by a 350ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor and 3-speed automatic transmission. Finished in a custom Black and Silver two-tone exterior over a Gray interior, it also features power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, aftermarket wheels, an aftermarket suspension setup, and a center console with cupholders. The result is a distinctly American pickup that keeps the straightforward appeal of the original C10 while adding a cleaner, lower, more customized presentation.
The 1986 Chevrolet Corvette represents one of the defining early years of the C4 generation, when Chevrolet pushed the Corvette further into the modern performance era with digital instrumentation, aerodynamic styling, and Tuned Port Injection V8 power. Showing 99,665 miles, this example is finished in Black over a Red leather interior, a classic combination that suits the C4’s sharp, low-slung profile especially well. Its 5.7L L98 V8 is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, while features such as the removable targa roof panel, digital gauge cluster, Delco-Bose audio system, and power-adjustable sport seats give it the period-correct mix of technology and grand-touring comfort that made the C4 such a major step forward for the Corvette.
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible Restomod takes one of the most celebrated shapes in American sports-car history and updates the experience underneath without losing the visual drama that made the C2 Corvette iconic. Showing approximately 65,888 miles, this example pairs its Victory Red exterior and black interior with a modern 5.7L LS1 V8, electronic fuel injection, and a 4-speed manual transmission. Vintage Air climate control, Dakota Digital RTX instrumentation, upgraded suspension components, modernized braking hardware, and aftermarket wheels move the driving experience well beyond a stock early Corvette while preserving the low-slung roadster proportions enthusiasts immediately recognize.
This 1972 Chevrolet Nova is the kind of classic that proves you do not need stripes, spoilers, or a big-block badge to have genuine muscle-era appeal. Showing approximately 53,285 miles, it pairs a 307ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor and 2-speed Powerglide automatic, giving it the easygoing, torque-rich feel of a traditional small-block Chevy cruiser. The custom orange finish gives the car plenty of presence, while Rally-style wheels, factory air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make the package feel especially usable. It is a clean, straightforward Nova built around the formula enthusiasts still appreciate today: V8 power, rear-wheel drive, simple mechanicals, and unmistakable early-1970s Chevrolet styling.
The 1955 Willys Jeep CJ-5 represents the early civilian evolution of the wartime Jeep formula, retaining the compact dimensions, simple mechanicals, and go-anywhere character that made the platform famous. Showing 32,946 miles, this example is finished in Forest Green with a Black/Gray vinyl interior and features the classic open-top CJ configuration with removable doors, a fold-down windshield, and a rear cargo area with a drop-down tailgate. Its 134ci Hurricane F-head four-cylinder, 3-speed manual transmission, and dual-range 4WD system give it the straightforward, mechanical driving experience that defines an early CJ.
This 1967 Jeep CJ-5 is the kind of early Jeep that reminds you why the CJ became such an enduring off-road icon in the first place. Showing approximately 1,922 miles, this example keeps the formula wonderfully simple with a 225ci V6, 4-speed manual transmission, and a Dana 18 twin-stick transfer case sending power through a Dana 27 front axle and Dana 44 rear axle. Finished in green over a reupholstered tan interior, it combines period-correct utility with just enough upgrades to make it more usable, including manual locking hubs, a power brake booster, and a spray-lined tub. It is compact, mechanical, and purpose-built in exactly the way vintage Jeep enthusiasts tend to appreciate.
The El Camino has always lived in its own lane—part muscle car, part pickup, and all attitude—and this 1964 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod leans hard into the performance side of that equation. Showing approximately 538 miles, it wears a custom Burgundy finish over a Black Procar interior and packs a 383ci stroker V8 backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. This isn’t a lightly updated cruiser; the build reaches into the engine bay, suspension, braking system, cabin, and supporting hardware to give the first-year El Camino a much sharper, more modern personality while keeping the long-roofline-meets-pickup-bed silhouette that made these cars so memorable in the first place.
