1967 Chevrolet C10 – Jim E.

I acquired my grandfather’s 1964 C10 after he passed away. He purchased the truck brand new so I am the second owner of the truck. The truck had been sitting for the last 25 years under a carport. Within three days, I had the truck running and two day after that driving. I have purchased…

1987 Chevrolet K10 – Kyle E.

I’m 48 now and I have wanted to own one of these since I was 15 years old. ( 33 years in the making) The chance finally arrived and I jumped on it. I drove 5.5 hours south from my hometown to look at the truck and to my surprise the frame has already been…

1966 Chevrolet C10 – Lee W.

I bought the truck in 1994 from a neighbor when I was 18 years old. I saved up all summer long and gave him $300. I searched all the junk yards at the time for parts. Luckily back then a person could still find a lot of these old trucks. I was hellbent to find…

1992 Chevrolet K1500 – Lucas S.

I bought this truck back in 2024, it had been a farm truck out in Kentucky. I slowly started replacing everything to make it what is has become today. I’ve sourced a lot of parts from LMC to get this truck back to “brand new”. I’m still not done as there’s much more I want…

1964 Chevrolet C10 – Patrick P.

When I left for college in the 80’s, I drove a hand me down ’64 Chevy Belaire. It was a tank and took me any and everywhere I needed to go. It had a V8/350, with a power glide transmission. I never shed away from a race and won as many as I lost. After…

1965 Chevrolet C10 – Mark G.

I traded a 2009 Polaris 500 for a 1965 Chevy C10 project! It sits on a 1991 1500 suburban frame with a Rancho two inch lift! We have totally restored the cab replacing the passenger side rocker panel and the panel above the windshield! We also repaired the floor! We have completed stripping the entire…

2001 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 – Michael S.

I purchased my Silverado new in 2001. Only had 6 miles and it’s still holding on. I have replaced the transmission but other than that the truck has over 400,000 miles on it and I would not give it up for anything. It’s a work horse. And in my case is cheaper to keep her…

1960 Chevy Apache – David W.

Abandoned at Aamco because it needed a clutch so my son-in-law got a salvage title for it and brought to me for a birthday present. Turned into the most expensive present I’ll ever have. I wasn’t ready to start on it and it sat out in a pasture for several years. Packrats had made a…
