About
I bought this to use as a parts chaser while I restore my '63 C10 "Project MEANlowGREEN". It's a '74 C10 Custom with a 250 inline Six and a # Speed column shift manual transmission. It was bought new in Asheboro, NC at Nance Chevrolet and has spent it's whole life in and around the Asheboro area. My next door neighbors sister & brother-in-law bought it from the original "old man" owner and when his brother-in-law died suddenly my neighbor bought it from his sister and I bought it from him 9 months later. It may not look like much but the truck has 95,000 actual miles and runs, shifts, drives and rides like a new truck (a new 1974 truck that is). I'm sure I will give this vehicle some much needed love and attention eventually but most likely only after I am finished with MENlowGREEN.
Specs
250 Inline 6 cylinder, 3 Speed manual column shift transmission, no power steering, no power brakes, no AC, or any other power accessories. It's just a basic truck but I love to drive the old girl anyhow.
Factory Options
I'm thinking none...
Mods
None yet.
