FREE 1974 Chevy C30 3+3 Dually

[Nick_R_23]

I recent scored and saved this 1974 Chevy C30 Crew Cab Dually from a lot that was being cleared. The owner wanted all the vehicles removed, so I took this one! This is how it was found, obviously been sitting for quite a few years. I also posted this in the Abandoned and Neglected thread, but it’s been saved now!



How it arrived. It had a seized rear drum on the driver side, tires were flat, it wasn’t very enthusiastic about moving yet.





SPID shows this is a factory 454/TH400 truck! Engine is long gone, but the TH400 is still there.





I was able to give it a quick scrub down before it really dumped snow. It’ll get cleaned much better once it’s summer again.





I scored a complete 1974 front end (headlight bezels, grille, brackets, headlight hardware, valance, and bumper) locally for $160!







One of the bezels was mismatched so I traded it for another silver one.



I managed to unseize the rear drum, which looks to have new shoes. I removed all of the wheels because it has the factory split rings in the rear, and mismatched ones up front.
