1973 Chevrolet C-10 Custom Deluxe 1/2 Ton Fleetside Description
I'm a private "Classic Car Addict" (open to anything Classic & interesting), offering up my most recent project, a fully & tastefully customized '73 Chevy P/U w/ a show quality 350 V8 Engine Compartment & Custom Interior / Cowl Induction Hood / Front Grill / Rear Roll Pan / Bed Liner / Tonneau Cover / Sunroof / Sliding Rear Window / & Crager Chrome Wheels on Raised White Letter BF Goodrich Tires.

My assessment of the condition of this truck, and what the photos & feature listing may not depict, but would be pointed out in an independent inspection on behalf of a Classic Car Inspection &/or Valuation Report:
The VIN Number is CCY143F356363 (Ebay's system won'the accept the older VIN Numbers). The Mileage of 96,000 is as reflected on the Odometer, and is exempt for title purposes given the age. I was not provided the records to support the date of engine rebuild or mileage since.
The Engine Compartment & Interior are Show Quality, with the exception of some usual pitting in the ceramic coating on the Headers. The Wheels & Tires are NEW and also Show worthy. The body sheet metal is not, however, laser straight, nor are the hood and door lines perfect, or the paint Show Quality (as you would expect from a frame-off restoration only, which this truck has not had, nor does my Reserve Price reflect). The paint does have a deep Black shine, but minor body and paint imperfections that close-up photos would not capture, nor would a non-critical eye. I had all notable body dings removed via the paint-less dent removal process, and had the cab freshly and fully re-painted to the pinstripe level, to correct the only paint flaws I found worthy of re-paint. In the process, I correctly removed & replaced the windshield weatherstrip in the process, as well as the cab door window weatherstrip & regulators.
Please do e-mail (bill@flsbc.com) or text / phone (484-356-3588) with any questions or additional photo requests, upon review. I'll also be pleased to text or e-mail you a short video should you wish to hear the truck running, and am prepared to accommodate your Private or Independent Inspections & transport arrangements.
