Found this hidden gem today............
Actually sitting behind a red barn since 1992!
It's in rough shape, but when you are told to come get it for free and haul it off with the pink slip, it's kind of a no brainer! Check out the SPID......... 1523FC Special Paint? Can anyone explain this? I will post pictures when I get to my computer, phone wont let me post pictutes.

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
You can’t beat free! Seems likely it was not a special “white” paint but interior says otherwise? Maybe it was white and XYZ two-tone that was painted over partially?

That kind of gives you an open canvas to do whatever you want.

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
The partial engine is not original, GM Goodwrench 350 engine. But someone added power steering!
7/70 build date? Metal door panels?

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
Look closely at the drivers door........... 3 bullet holes! 2 in the door and 1 through the door handle.
rust around the window and the back of the roof.

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
Interesting option, IP door lock
Individual person? door lock, is there a lock cylinder in the passenger side door? Am I reading it wrong?, Curious what that option means |

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
7/70 build date: its a 1970 model
IP door lock- my guess is Instrument Panel Door lock, looks like the glove compartment door button is the locking version. Metal door panels are correct- 1972 was the first year with plastic panels Based on the lack of an engine listed on the SPID and the VIN starting with CE it would have had a 307 V8 originally. TH350 is correct for a C10 equipped with a 307. M49 is the correct RPO for auto transmission. The GM vehicle info packet does not differentiate between TH350 and TH400 only if it was a small block or big block.

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
I was able to get a picture of the casting number on the block that is currently in it.
Casting# 14016397 I found 2 different listings for this casting on 3 different sites. 2 sites say it is a 1977-1979 350ci. 2 bolt or 4 bolt. 1 site says it is a 1978-1985 350ci. 2 bolt or 4 bolt. I did not take a picture of the other side of the block or the front for the date code. Kicking myself now.

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
Don't park it too close to your house. Looks like you got some termite action in the bed rails

Re: Found this hidden gem today............
The bed rails and the garbage in the bed will be staying behind the barn! I am getting the truck, not the "extras"!
