1966 Chevrolet C10 Fleetside Big Back Window bbw patina rat rod project truck

Here you’re looking at a true all original untouched farm find! 1966 Fleetside big back window c10 with some amazing characteristics as well as some awesome documentation included!

We found this truck while filming our YouTube series Turnin Rust. It was a somewhat local find and we were able to capture the purchase of the vehicle along with the wrenching on her to get it back up and running again. The link to watch the full video will be provided at the bottom of the ad!

As you can tell from the pics, this is a beautiful piece of automotive history! 1966 Fleetside c10 with the sought after big back window option. The truck was found sitting out in a pasture where it had been left for many years. The previous owner that we purchased the truck from was able to save it and pass it onto us. It has the original 283 v8 in it with 3spd on the column. She cranks up and runs awesome! Super quiet, no strange internal noises or smoke and cranks and idles within seconds. Upon purchasing, we had to replace an old freeze plug on the front of engine, but since driving it has apparently had another bad one give out on the back as well as a leaky water pump that will need addressed. The truck also has the factory mechanical fuel pump bypassed as it is no good an currently is running a new inline electrical pump that works great. We’ve since ran the lines into an auxiliary fuel tank as the stock tank really needs to be pulled an cleaned well. There are currently no working brakes on the truck and they will need to be rebuilt.

Exterior wise on the truck she is beautiful with some awesome colors left on it! It is a long bed truck but to me that doesn’t make it any less “cool”. The body is fairly straight other than some damage down low on the passenger bed side as seen in pics and some smaller dings here an there. There is almost no rust on this truck in the typical spots these normally have issues! As seen in pics the cab corners, bottoms of doors, above windshield etc. are all very solid, underneath the truck is very solid as well! The doors open and shut just like a brand new truck! I don’t have the exterior keys to the truck, but they’re no longer locked and you can open the doors from the inside and outside now.

Interior is super clean and all original! Still has the factory rubber mat in the floor an the cardboard on the outside of the fuel tank. Even the radio still works!

The tires are old an the back ones leak down in a couple days. Keep in mind this is a project truck that’s been sitting up for several years so it’s not something you will drive home. The truck will crank up, move, steer, and drive on a trailer with using the parking brake to help stop.

I do have a clear title on the truck, as well as some really cool documents including the original receipt when purchased new as well as the trucks original protecto plate and owners manual!

If you’re in the market for a really cool project, this big back window just might be the one for you! It has great potential for an all original restore or something really cool with the preserved patina look!

Either way we were happy to save this beauty and be able to pass her on to someone else where she can live again!!
