Yes folks, they still exist - I bought a 1963 SBFS with BBW Custom C10. Clean open SC title. ALL the fender, door and bed trim is still intact. Aluminum 1963 grille is great but missing one bezel. Custom stainless sail panels intact. Custom SW too but missing one piece. Original L6 with TOTT. Not running.
Pictures coming. Delivery this Thursday 2/23/17.

Here is how I found it. Give it a try where you live.
In the CARS+TRUCKS section, I typed C-10, because using the dash will get different results that C10 will get. The CL listing simply said ANTIQUE TRUCK. However the person listing it filled in the other details and gave the model as C-10.
Well, here it is. I was wrong about the engine. It has a 1971 250ci which I'm fairly sure will run. Notice that this is a Custom truck with all the trimmings. Super straight truck but has a few serious rust issues that need attention. Best of all, it has not been cut up. The engine is not original and the radio hole has been cut bigger (by dummy heads). Sheet metal in the bed is over the original wood. I think I found a really nice 1963.
