Basic Old 1964 C-10

[sambrutay]

Let me take you on a little ride with me. This year I drove my 1964 Chevrolet C-10 all up and down I-65. My truck is quite simple, 230ci 6 cylinder backed by a 3ott with stock 373 rear gear. Not necessarily set up for highway cruising in this day and age. Last winter thru the spring I was freshening up the old girl getting her ready for the summer.

Here she is when I first got her.



As you see she’s already low. The truck was built by a local shop before I got it. Already had a 2” Zeed frame, and bagged all corners with an Airlift Auto pilot V2 system. Other than that this truck is stock.
My first project was to fix the large hole in the bed and some shocks I ordered off of Amazon.



Here is son giving me hand with the bed removal.





And here she is finished product. Just and economical plywood fix. I have about $100 in the bed repair.
