It was about 2 years ago that Ralph Kumbier from Motown Autoparts thought about building a shop truck but he did not really put a lot of effort into finding a suitable vehicle.
-
Ralph has always been a Chevy guy at heart so a Chevy would be the obvious choice. The goal was to build something that stands out and shows off the parts that Motown showcases.
One day, a friend of his came into the shop and said that he had seen an old C10 standing in a yard in Brackenfell, Cape Town. He was not sure the year or model, but Ralph jumped into his car and drove there to meet the owner (who ended up being a mutual friend of a friend). It was a 1964 Chevy C10 and it was perfect. Ralph knew he wanted to bag the truck. The 1964 Chevy was produced after Chevrolet had done away with the older torsion bar-type front suspension and was perfectly suited to what he wanted to build.
At first the owner was a bit hesitant to sell, but Ralph’s determination paid off and eventually a deal was struck. With a copy of the NATIS documents in hand, a copy of guys ID, and an old license disc, an old milk jug in the back and a water cooler, he was on his way back to the shop.
Once the truck was at the shop, he took a step back to see what he just got himself into. It was a one owner truck that was originally from a farm in Noupoort and it still had the original black and white CEL number plates on it.
