My dad taught me how to drive in his 64, six cylinder, three-on-the-tree so I have a soft spot for the 64-66 C10s. Currently restoring a 66 & you are right, very difficult to find decent original parts & aftermarket very pricey & not as good as original. I watch Gibson 63 as well, have learned alot from him. God bless you my friend. 😁

I'm glad that you are saving a truck too! Yes, parts are very hard to come by for these trucks! Expensive too! That Gibson 63 is a good KZbin Channel to watch for trucks like we have! Thanks buddy for your comment and for watching the video!

66 is my favorite year also but that's probably because I have one. Also my favorite costum cab badge is the one on my truck it's the little one that just says it. I have only seen a few of them like it.

All of those years are cool. My favorite year out of them is 1964 because it was the first year for that cab design which looks awesome. My favorite year out of all of the years vehicles were produced in is 1972 because the square bodies were first released "during the mid to late summer season" for the 1973 model year. Also what I like about 1972 was cabover semis were the king of the roads too.

1960 and 1961 have a unique hood design that is highly sought after. They stopped making those hoods while these trucks were still in production so if you got in a fender bender, you got a 62-66 hood as a replacement from GM.

I’ve got a ‘65 C10 pick up truck same factory color as yours but mines a long bed … but I love it. I wanted the long bed with the small rear window. They’re all nice! But some say the big rear window in the’66 is a favorite. I prefer the small window though. Mine don’t have trim but the trim looks very nice! Love your truck and the stance!

I prefer the GMCs. Had a '64 Camper Special long bed, basically 3/4 ton IFS and 1-ton rear with both leafs and "helper" coil-overs. You could jump on the diamond plate step bumper and it was like jumping on concrete lol. Also had the "sporty" '66 1/2 ton coils all around. The big block V6s were boat anchors, but could pull anything at idle. Same mpgs empty or loaded lol.
