1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Hello,
I have a few questions about the custom cab interior and the engine for a 1962 C10 pickup. I wanted to know if anyone knew where I can find original material for the 62 custom cab interior with the decorative insert, not for the 1961 or 1963 C10's as they are different. Here is a 1962 picture I found and it is the same material I would need, and also I believe this truck came with a 327. At least it has one in it now I think based on the air cleaner on it and the orange visible paint on the intake. It has been basically owned by the same family since 1962, and I saw on the 62 chevy truck brochure it was available for the bigger truck. Could that be custom ordered for the C10? Let me know. thanks Last edited by 64jmb; 01-20-2015 at 09:42 PM. |

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
As far as I knew, the 66 models were the only ones to come out with a factory 327. I could be wrong though..

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Mine was 283, 327 didn't come out til 1966 according to book. The engine would be green/grey?. Not orange. Would have genarator not alternator.

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
The motor I think is grey and the intake is orange to much dirt on it to see it I need to clean it off first to see but the air cleaner looks like the one in the 62 brochure for the big trucks 327.

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Could you special order a 327 for the C10 in 1962?

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
I don't know if a '62 could have been ordered from the factory with a 327, but it certainly could have been dealer installed for the customer.

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
My very original, unmolested 62 has a 283 in it with an original generator on it as well.

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Here is a picture of the engine compartment as left original. Look t the air cleaner, it looks like the C50/60 one or for a 57 chevy 327. Is this stock? It looks correct to me like a factory 327.

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
My guess is its not a 327, I havent seen an original air cleaner like that on a C10 before. And as far as I know you couldnt get a 327 in any half ton until 66

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Thanks for the info.
Is that the correct air cleaner that is in the picture for a 283? I believe the motor is grey and the intake may be orange. |

Re: 1962 C10 Custom Cab Question
Yes, the round oil bath on the left is correct for 62 283. Your engine would have been a 2 barrel though.
