Chevrolet Itasca – other models: the collective page of motorhome chassis, the C10 and Silverado, V8 engines of 5.7 to 6.2 litres, gross weight up to 3,200 kg
This page gathers Chevrolet chassis under the register designation Itasca, the name of a Winnebago motorhome brand that builds bodies on Chevrolet chassis. Listed here are a version based on the Chevrolet C10 and one based on the Chevrolet Silverado, two light pick-up chassis with V8 engines that serve as a load-bearing base for living bodies.

The register lists 2 versions here with displacement from 5,735 to 6,162 cm³ from eight-cylinder engines, kerb weights from 1,381 to 2,561 kg, gross vehicle weights from 2,449 to 3,221 kg, a length of 5,890 mm and widths from 2,060 to 2,070 mm.
As a base for motorhome bodies, C10 and Silverado chassis are common across North America, where box bodies turn them into full recreational vehicles for touring and camping; the V8 engines provide the pulling power needed for the high body weight, while the chassis itself largely matches the production state of the respective pick-up.
For a used example, check the condition and mounting of the living body on the chassis, corrosion on the frame and axles given the high payload, the condition of the clutch, brakes and suspension, and the operation of the supply and waste systems typical of motorhomes; the tightness of the joints between the cab and the living body also deserves attention. Chassis parts run through the Chevrolet dealer network, and the body through specialist motorhome workshops.
