Christopher Zinevich's '64 C/10 Chevy Truck

CHRISTOPHER ZINEVICH GREW up around custom cars and trucks.

- Grant Cox

His dad helped mold his mind into building things that either went fast or could be customized. For many years, the two worked together as a well-oiled team, rebuilding a Twin-Turbo 1964 VW Bug to make it go even faster or grinding away on their 1950 Chevy truck.

After high school, Christopher went to work for Tallant’s Hot Rods as a mechanic/fabricator at the shop in Kansas City, Missouri. There he was able to grow and add to what he had learned from his dad. One afternoon, Dan Tallant, the shop owner, picked up a 1964 C/10 for a possible shop truck. From the outside it was a good candidate, but underneath those 1964 body panels, several mechanical issues prevented it from being a reliable driver for the shop.
