Chevy C10 trucks can be seen at every classic car show in the country. The C10 and boxy body has historically become the platform for building your favorite truck.
C10s are so popular that many events have decided to only feature these 1960-1987 Chevy trucks.
As a side note,I wrote an article about the differences of the Chevy C10 over the years which you can find here.
