1973 454 C-10 New to me ?
 
I just purchased a 1973 Cheyenne Super short bed with a 454. It has 33,900 original miles. It is an extremely nice truck that's been kept in the dry it whole life.

How many big block 1/2 tons were built in 1973, I don't know if I have ever seen one.

Beautiful Find; Love the woodgrain! What is the color listed on the Spid? Gotta be pretty rare in that condition.

That is a cream puff, with woodgrain, hubcaps and all. That could be in a museum. I hope it never gets hacked.

Nice truck. Was it painted? I don't see any drip rails above the doors.

WOW! That is one cool truck. I think its cool how many of these trucks are still hidden away with low miles and nice trucks.

I haven't had a chance to look over it good at this point. I haven't gotten it home yet and I have to go out of town for a few days for work. I hope to get it home next Wednesday, I really excited about it.

Drip rails didn't exist until 74. Didn't take um long to figure out how neccessary they were! lol

I prefer slammed, LS, big wheels, restomod. But even I would leave that time capsule alone! Excellent find, envious!

That is one awesome truck you have! Quite a few years ago, 40 I think, we had a 73 cheyenne super on the farm, 454 lwb, solid black. I'm sure it's long gone now.

Had to dig this back up. Probably my favorite square ever. This truck recently sold for around 50k.

Now you’ve got everyone drooling!!

What a beautiful time capsule. That should be shined up and put on display. See how much GM will give you for their heritage museum. Haha!
