NOVEMBER 2026 - CAR OF THE MONTH STORY – SARAH PROSENKO'S 1964 Chevy C-10

More Than Just a Classic Truck — A Family Tradition

For some classic car enthusiasts, it’s all about the horsepower, shiny chrome, and beautiful paint jobs. But for CAL-RODS member Sarah Prosenko, her beautiful 1964 Chevy C-10 pickup represents something even more special — a lifelong love of classic cars and the treasured bond she shares with her dad.

Sarah grew up surrounded by the classic car hobby, spending countless hours attending car shows and cruises with her father. Those experiences created wonderful memories and sparked a passion for classic vehicles that has stayed with her throughout her life.

About five years ago, Sarah purchased her 1964 Chevy C-10 from another classic car enthusiast in a local car club. The truck, purchased during the pandemic, became a special project for Sarah and her dad to enjoy together. They made several cosmetic improvements, including a fresh green-and-white paint job and a new gray-and-green cloth interior.

Under the hood sits a small-block Chevy engine paired with a Chevy 350 transmission. Sarah has kept the truck’s stock rear axle and wheels, maintaining much of its original classic character.

While Sarah primarily enjoys her C-10 for weekend cruising and local outings, she admits she doesn’t get behind the wheel nearly as often as she’d like. But when she does, every drive brings back those wonderful memories of growing up in the classic car community.

One of the things Sarah loves most is how her role in the hobby has changed over the years. She fondly remembers riding alongside her dad as a passenger on the way to car shows. Today, she’s behind the wheel of her very own classic truck, cruising along with him and their fellow car enthusiasts.

As Sarah puts it, there’s nothing quite like rolling down the windows, joining the caravan, and cruising in her C-10!

What makes Sarah’s story so special isn’t just the beautiful truck she’s created, but the time she and her dad have spent working on it together. It’s a reminder that our classic cars are so much more than metal, engines, and wheels. They’re about family, friendships, memories, and sharing a passion that can be passed from one generation to the next.

Congratulations, Sarah, on being selected as our CAL-RODS Car of the Month! We’re delighted to have you and your beautiful 1964 Chevy C-10 as part of our CAL-RODS family. We look forward to seeing you out on the road, windows down, enjoying every mile!
