Can I ask... What exactly is "Kustom" ?? Kustom usually refers to some body mods....

Nice build I love this year body...main reason is because I have a 1966.
Kustom doesnt mean that all the time. I have a 1:1 1966 Custom C-10 truck. Even has the chrome pieces to say that. Im not sure exactly what the difference in the "factory custom" and "Factory stock" is with these trucks because I havent noticed a diffence. Ive been looking for a 64-66 fleetside pickup just like this one. If i get the 64 ill have to convert it to the 66 but with a V8 and not the 250 straight 6 that mine came with.

Both of your 64s are cool! I would flat tow the gasser to the track with this truck.

As far as I'm concerned if the model does not look like the car/truck on the box it cam in the it is custom.

I'd used a blue Sharpie what i did was flipped the reservoir upside down and painted the inside of it with a Sharpie.

Mitch, did you modify the hood? Looks like it was cut and made thinner. If so you did some good bodywork there as I had to compare both your 64's side by side...
