I went to work one day (construction operator) and i noticed the guy we were working for had a 73 chevy c-10 sitting there. I was joking with him and asked him if he wanted me to haul it off for him. he said yea you want it? he said it ran 3 months ago and just quit. so i got me a 73 chevy. he said it was willed to him and he had no interest in it. in the glove was a ton of recipts. heres the skinny


1973 chevy c-10
long bed
stock 350 rebuilt in 2010 by midas
brand new 2" exaust from a local muffler shop
new brakes last year
new shocks last year
and registered until 2013 so $0 back fees.


I havnt even got through all the receipts yet so there may be more. I already changed the oil, spark plugs and wires. i got a new battery for it but it wont turn over. i think i got the firing order wrong. going to try again tomorrow. (the rats chewed the wires down to the plugs)

that's why, in CA, the older trucks shouldn't get cut up, they are "~gold" if running good
 
Great find dude! I bet it will cean up pretty good, just looks like alot of green crap on it, fix it up a lil and drive it! So cool!
 
Looks like a keeper to me.
Especially CA exempt.
Could be a nice get around truck.

How are they about matching VIN's, or can you just throw that body on a 4x4 frame?
