Its the factory 76 Chevrolet Light Green. Thank you for the compliment. It was kinda hard to go back with this color, but it has grown on me.

To paraphrase the warning for the world's most popular pill:

For "length" lasting more than 35 years, please consult a professional- and leave it alone!

Here's our old 76 cheyenne c10. dropped spindles, flipped rear axle with c-notch, 350 sb bored over 30, big cam,gear drive, edelbrock intake and carb, and a shift kit. Sold it a couple years ago and it went to Lowell and have not seen it since.

Next truck 83 chevy custom deluxe. heated coils in front, built sbc, aluminum boyd mags, john deere blitz black paint. Sold it a couple years ago and occasionally see it around my house.

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Short Beds

Then about two months ago my mom traded a Pontiac Sunfire for this 76 scottsdale. 4x4, built 400 sbc, automatic, 4 inch lift. I loved driving it, but it wasn't my moms thing..so bye bye it went.
also the last two pics were a couple days after she got it. When she sold it it looked alot cleaner.
