Introduced way back in 1960, the Chevrolet C10 is a classic light-duty pickup truck. Part of Chevrolet's iconic C/K line, C series trucks are equipped with two-wheel drive while K series pickups offer four-wheel drive. Built lower to the ground than today's pickups, the Chevrolet C10 was one of the first trucks marketed as a family vehicle rather than just a work truck. In recent years, Chevrolet C10 pickups have become popular with car enthusiasts as restoration or modification projects. Looking for a Chevrolet C10 for sale in your area?

Chevrolet C10 history and evolution
The Chevrolet C10 evolved through three generations over nearly three decades before being renamed the Chevrolet C1500 in 1988. First-generation pickups were produced between 1960 and 1966. The Chevrolet C10's independent front suspension offered a more car-like ride than the American automaker's earlier trucks. The second generation launched in 1967 and was known as the Action Line. By 1969, the Chevrolet C10 was available with a 255-horsepower V8 engine. The last of the second generation, the 1972 Chevrolet C10 is widely considered the most attractive model year by vintage truck enthusiasts. The third generation ran from 1973 to 1987 and is known as the Box Body or Square Body generation
