Been on be hunt for a 50-69 c10 for months now. I've found them all over but I never had time to go get them. So my wife found this on a local yard sale side yesterday, I was 3rd in line and luckily he other guys couldn't get the money. We couldn't be happier 😎

65' swb c10, 2wd swb factory heat/ac truck. No dents/dings, has had small part of floor repaired already. Wood bed is gone, cab mounts are all good, 1 radiator mount is gone, other is good. Truck has a 350 .40 over. Original 3 speed on coloum with new clutch.

Plans:
5 lug swap w/ disc up front
All new bushings/rebuild front end
Wood bed floor
350 auto Trans
18/20 wheel kit
Re cover factory seat
Dynamat floor and carpet

Welcome to the board. Truck looks good. I flipped your picture around so I wouldn't get a worse crick in my neck. Sounds like you got a good plan for it.

Thanks everyone..I've started tinkering with it for now. I'm building a 08 Silverado wreck right now. Time is limited. Once he 08 is sold then I'll be all over the 65 to get ready before the first summer nights cruise.
