This 1965 Chevrolet C20 is a long-bed Fleetside pickup that was refurbished from 2018 to 2023. Work involved boring over and rebuilding the 283ci V8, refinishing the truck in off-white, installing a wood bed floor, and re-trimming the interior in red and white. Equipment includes a Muncie four-speed manual transmission, 16″ steel wheels, chrome bumpers, vent windows, side mirrors, a heater, a floor-mounted gear shifter, and a Chevrolet-branded AM radio. The body was disassembled and stripped before it was refinished in off-white during the refurbishment, and a replacement windshield, weatherstripping, and chrome components were fitted. Steel 16″ wheels wear trim rings, covers with red-finished Bowties, and 235/85 Sailun TerraMax HLT tires. A Goodyear spare is stowed under the bed. The steering box and four-wheel drum brakes were adjusted in February 2018. The bench seat was reupholstered in red and white vinyl during the project, and the interior surfaces were repainted. Appointments include a heater, a Chevrolet-branded AM radio, and vent windows. The wiring, red carpeting, lap belts, sun visors, and pedals were recently replaced. The two-spoke steering wheel frames a horizontal 100-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Muncie four-speed manual transmission. The clutch assembly, bearings, and synchronizers were replaced in 2018. 61,160 miles, per owner.
