1963 Chevrolet Pick Up (c-10) SBC V8

1963 Chevrolet Other Pickups Shortbed Description

BODY
1963 Chevrolet Pickup. This truck used to be a long bed and was shortened 15 inches to fit a short box. The cab and doors were chopped 3.5". There are no marks or signs of any of the modifications. You cant tell where it was chopped, the quality is amazing. Obviously with this being done all of the glass is custom cut and fits like it should. While the top was getting chopped, I had the door handles and gas fill location shaved. The doors are opened with door poppers. I have a key fob that controls them . The gas tank has the relocation kit to get it out of the cab. Instead of the metal gas tank I used a 13 gallon fuel cell. The fill is hidden under an aluminum locking door at the rear of the bed. All of the wood (oak) for the bed has been replaced, sealed with new mounting hardware and steel. The tail lights were also shaved while the body work was getting done. A louvered roll pan style rear bumper was added and the rear lights are hidden behind the louvers. They're LED and still very visible when on.
The frame and all of the body panels have no rust and were rust free before being painted. The paint is black cherry with ghost flame. (kind of hard to see in the pictures) The paint is absolutely flawless and no expense was spared. You will be hard pressed to find any type of flaw to this truck.
The dash insert, Old Tyme black 6 gauge, is from Boese Engineering and works like it should.
ENGINE / TRANSMISSION
The Engine is a 355 with an RV Cam. It was fully rebuilt with the rest of the truck. The Engine is basically stock with an aluminum Edelbrock intake and Edelbrock 4 barrel carb. It has long tube ceramic headers. It is a true dual exhaust with flow master mufflers. It has a full aluminized exhaust that dumps in front of the rear axle. The plug wires are MSD, along with the distributor, cap, rotor and ignition.
The transmission (Brand New) is a 700r4 with a custom wiring harness by Dakota Digital for the gear selector. It was brand new at the time of this build and has the same amount of miles on it as the truck.
INFORMATION
This truck is absolutely spotless and no bolt was left unturned. I have suitcase full of receipts that told over 50K and that's not even all of them.
The radio works and is designed to look retro but plays FM. The heater core, fan, etc are all new and work great. The entire system was redone when the rest of the truck was. Everything on this truck is of high quality and was done right.
I have more pictures available upon request.
