Contender for least option pickup. Ever. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Just bought a square to part out. I needed the running gear for something else and it’s too rusty for anyone here in the desert to go for.
Anyway, it’s a 73 c10. First thing odd I noticed was that it has manual brakes. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a manual disc brake equipped truck. Original engine was 6 cylinder backed by a column shifted 3 speed.
Today I noticed that the seat doesn’t fold.. Was a folding seat back actually an extra cost option?
I wish the glovebox label was still there so I could see how blank it is.
I seem to attract the Plain Janes, but this one is ridiculous.
