Description:1980 Chevrolet C30 Scottsdale Utility Body Pickup Light-duty service trucks, also known as utility trucks, are a mostly post World War 2 American phenomenon. Trucks are, and have always been endlessly configurable, as to capacities and applications. Unlike cars, which are complete and fully fitted out, trucks are often ordered new as a cab-and-chassis, in which the final configuration of the vehicle is determined by the aftermarket elements and features that are added to it. Work trucks, in general, begin as either enclosed panel vans, pickup trucks, or flatbed trucks. The high-capacity, open rear platforms of heavy-duty flatbed trucks offer all sorts of opportunities for modification and specialization. Vans offer the capacity to be fitted and configured internally, while offering security, weather protection, and either anonymity or a broad open expanse for logos and/or advertising. This consignment, a 1980 C30 Scottsdale utility body 2 wheel drive pickup that is as well known in the Berks county area as the fabled Action News van, or so states our consignor. With its original paint, company lettering, and enclosed Reading utility body this worker bee is begging to be the gold star of your business. A 1 owner truck, that with some TLC will be ready, willing and able to perform any task you can throw at it, or better yet take our consignor\'s advice and create yourself the ultimate Philadelphia Eagles tailgating party machine. The world is your oyster! Exterior Call it Shamrock Green, Emerald Green or Eagles Green, whatever your name choice, it coats every corner of this utility body truck, and it appears for the most part to be the original finish. Fading, noted as heavier on the utility box, chips, scratches and poorly performed body work show throughout the body along with areas of invasive rust on the rockers, cab corners and insides of the door jambs. The original and still shiny chrome front bumper and bowtie dressed eggcrate grille with outboard single round headlights lead the way and the centrally peaked hood runs rearward to the black trimmed nice condition windshield. The hand painted lettering, which is original, is still showing proudly on the passengers door and makes an appearance again on the driver\'s side of the bed box. Speaking of the utility box, it\'s a Reading Body unit which is known for high quality builds that remain durable and can withstand the rigors of daily use. A multitude of storage compartments are seen on the box sides and when opened reveal shelving units as well as compartments to store your tools, hardware or damn near anything else your heart desires and ladder holders are noted on the passenger side of the box. Moving around back we shake hands with a quad of windows on the dual doors that swing open to allow us access to the walk in box. Inside we are met with a 1/8 aluminum diamond plate floor and 3 rows of storage shelves per side. 16.5-inch standard steel wheels are on the 4\'s and are wrapped in tires that are old enough to deem replacing in the near future, although the tread remains in good condition. Standard bowtie badged dog dish caps are on for a little extra pizazz. Interior The originality continues on the inside with faded green plastic door panels that present with ribbed horizontal inserts and chrome delineation markers. Shamrock Green steel surrounds the panels and some chrome for the cranks and actuators provides a nice dress up. Slipping inside, the factory dark green vinyl bench with its grain finish stretches door to door and shows with some hastily repaired tears with clear tape. The original dash with its faded green padded topper holds a bevy of factory black faced gauges all within a textured black panel and the factory black insert with knobs and heater/AC slides below along with the factory AM radio. The factory steering column is holding the black rimmed original steering wheel atop. Soiled, torn and faded light green rubber m
