1963 Chevy C60 LCF flatbed hay truck. Dad sold the ranch and I inherited two C60s. This 63 is currently (nov 22) back seat to the 62 I'm getting back on the road. The sale of which will subsidize this 63. It's a pretty worn out 292 4/2 running gear, there is air in the (only 4 at the moment) tires, and the body is sorta straight. I love the running board/ fenders with the steps stamped in 'em. Hard to imagine in today's plastic n coke can metal cars world a sheet metal fender you are SUPPOSED to stand on. The fantasy is to put this truck back to work towing my dustless blaster trailer retirement business around with capacity for a pallet of abrasive. Figure I can spend 25k fixing this old girl up and be slow n steady or 40,50 (hell 80?)k for a disposable 2015+ truck that does the same job. Hell I'm in no rush anymore 😉. Now about those tires and maybe some power steering....?

Your wheels are 10 on 8.75" bolt circle with a 6.25". They made a 22.5" single piece wheel from 1960-1987 . There is a non original looking wheel available from some sources but its flatter face I feel takes away from the original look.
