With its matte black finish, painted front and rear bumpers and custom side mirrors paired with an aggressively inclined stance that comes via a set of fresh Mickey Thompson ET Street Tires, this 1965 Chevrolet C10 has an undeniably cool look. It offers a great combination of authentically vintage and aftermarket elements that combine to create a truly standout finished result. And, along with those well-thought-out aesthetic features comes a driving experience that's sure to put a smile on your face, with a nicely enhanced engine anchoring a very high functioning drivetrain. If you're looking for a classic truck that's equal parts looker and thrill ride, you'll want to check this one out.
The two-tone, red and black interior makes for a compelling driving environment, with a vinyl bench seat at its center that still has plenty of life left. The adjacent B&M floor-mounted shifter calls for you to grab ahold and start the action, and the undersized steering wheel perched on the tilting column confers an additional aftermarket sensibility. At the center of the dash, an AM/FM stereo with Bluetooth connectivity sits in place of the original radio, sending its sound through both under dash and boxed speakers below the seat to create an outstanding audio experience.
This C10 packs quite a punch. It's powered by a 383-cubic-inch stroker V8, so there'll be plenty of torque at your disposal, and with an upgraded camshaft, Proform four-barrel 650 double-pumper carburetor and a GM Performance Parts aluminum intake manifold also added to the mix, it holds the promise of many future miles of exhilarating driving. The well-fortified engine teams with a 3-speed automatic TH400 transmission that was serviced not long ago and shifts through its gears without issue. A recently rebuilt 12-bolt rear axle with Eaton posi-traction completes this rock-solid drivetrain. As you'd likely expect from a ride with so many fresh, high-quality components on board, this Chevy starts easily, idles smoothly and accelerates with strength that becomes apparent right away. Up front, an upgraded aluminum radiator pairs with an electric fan to keep operating temperatures in check.
