just signed up im from southern Kentucky. im been interested in 60-66 chevy trucks for a while now because im tired of the 73-87 trucks.

im been looking at a truck to buy but im not sure about it because people told me parts are hard to find.

it's a 62 chevy C40 stake bed I6 4 speed. it needs wheel cylinders because they leak the guy put new tires on the back two years ago 7.00-18. so now the only thing it need is brakes.

Hi Jake, welcome. If you live out in the hills, you better look after those brakes. Parts shouldn't be too hard to find, some of them are still available at FLAPS. Other parts are available right here in the for sale section of the swap meet. Good luck!

Jake, your at the right place. Some things are hard to find because folks don't know where to look. Worry no more. YOur in good hands and parts for you truck should be available....maybe not plentiful, but available. Ask questions in the appropiate forum and guys will tell you where to find stuff and most of the time the best prices/quality.

Nice to see a young man interested in these older trucks and congrats on your 2 years of auto shop. It will definitely serve you well over the coming years.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
