Trucking along with C10s and K5s By CHRISTOPHER CORREA

exter Albores of Livingston has a had a love for cars since he was a kid. After seeing lowriders hopping on hydros and having heard the exhausts on trucks screaming when they passed by, he knew it was something that he wanted to be a part of. “When they passed by, I was like ‘When I grow up, I’m going to get me one.’” Albores’ journey with cars began with a 1987 Checy C10 squarebody fleetside shortbed. Chevrolet made the popular two-wheeldrive trucks from 1960 to 1987, and they are considered to be one of the most reliable classic pickup trucks ever produced. Albores would eventually sell the truck, which is something he thinks about often. “That’s probably really the only one I regret selling,” he said. His love for trucks, particularly the C10 models, has never wavered, though. While it is nearly impossible for him to get the original C10 back into his possession, Albores has continued the legacy through the cars he owns
