1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed 1/2 Ton Pick Up

The Chevy C/K series first made its introduction in the fall of 1959 for the 1960 model year, and continued all the way up to 2002. As the vehicle that would go on to replace the Task Force range, Chevy put some serious consideration into making the C/K series special and therefore decided to give it its own independent pickup chassis, something completely different from the usual GM A-body platform. But this wasn't enough, while the C/K was indeed designed for the working man, Chevrolet decided to give it many features that would otherwise be found on a car, making it more enjoyable even for daily use. The C/K was offered in two trims, the 'K' series, which represented 4x4 drive, and the conventional 'C' series like this 1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Half-Ton Pick Up that comes from South Carolina with just 4,300 miles and is ready for its next owner.

Exterior and Interior

Thanks to its all-new paint job, this early Sixties truck sits proudly in a bright red coat, a perfect contrast to the white accents seen on the front grille, front and rear bumper, and prominent mirror caps. What's also noticeable is the wooden bed seen in the rear end of the truck, and certainly adds to its unique appearance, as for its shoes, the Chevy sits on a set of reportedly new General Grabber tires that are wrapped around white retro-styled wheels to add to the vehicles aesthetic. Keeping in trend with the exterior, the cabin of this 1963 Chevrolet C10 Short Bed Half-Ton Pick Up also has a red/white color formula, with most of the dash and door panels along with the headliner remaining white while subtle hints of red can be seen in the exposed parts of the interior. As for seating, the Chevy has a grey seating set that looks like a merge between a bucket and bench-style seating. A modern JVC head unit adds a contemporary tuneful touch.

Engine

Under the hood of this 1963 Chevrolet C10, Short Bed Half-Ton Pick Up sits a reportedly overhauled inline 230ci six-cylinder engine with an array of new parts. These include a new carburetor, alternator and radiator, wiring harness, a new gas tank placed under the bed of the truck, a new transmission pan, power steering, and steering column, new thermostat and water pump, as well as a new battery. Let's not forget the set of new front disc brakes up front.
