A Gift for the Squarebody Guy, or for Your Own Garage

Buying it for him? The man with a square body Chevy already has the parts truck, the forum login and the photos on his phone. What he doesn't have is his name and his truck's year on the wall of the room where he spends his Saturdays. That is why this sign works as a birthday, Father's Day, anniversary or retirement gift: it can't be the wrong size, the wrong color or something he already owns. In our reviews, one in four buyers mentions how heavy and solid the steel feels out of the box, and the most common line is simply that he loved it.

Buying it for yourself? You brought the truck back. The wall above it is next. Put your name and the year of your C10 on 16 gauge steel and the garage stops looking like storage and starts looking like yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

What text can I put on the 1980 C10 Squarebody garage sign?

Three lines: a name line (Zack's, Dad's, Grandpa's, a last name), a second line such as Garage or Shop, and an EST year. Most buyers use the model year of the truck, 1980, or the year he bought it. Type the text in the fields above and the preview updates live before you add it to the cart.

Which size should I choose for a garage?

18 inches reads well on a wall inside the house or a den. For a garage wall, above a workbench or over the garage door, 24 or 30 inches is the size most truck owners pick, because the room is bigger and the sign is seen from farther away. 36 inches is the showpiece for a two-car garage wall. This design starts at 15 inches.

How do I hang a metal garage sign?

The sign hangs with no tools and no drilling. Two holes are cut into the steel, one at the top and one at the bottom, so it hangs flat on a nail, screw or hook that is already in the wall. Because it is 16 gauge steel it stays flat and does not warp on the wall.

Will it rust if I hang it outside?

No. The sign is 16 gauge steel with a powder coat finish on every surface, which is why it is rated for indoor and outdoor use and won't rust or fade. It can hang on a covered porch, a shop door or an exterior garage wall.

Is this a good gift for a C10 owner?

Yes, and it is one of the few gifts a C10 owner cannot already have, because it carries his name and his truck's year. Buyers in our reviews are most often wives and adult daughters buying for a husband, dad or grandpa, and what they report back is that he loved it and that the steel is heavier than they expected.

Is the silhouette the square body C10?

Yes. The artwork is the third generation Chevy C/K pickup, the 1973 to 1987 body everyone calls the square body, drawn as a 1980 with the egg-crate grille and single round headlights of the last year before the 1981 front-end change.
