"Highly desirable 1975 Chevy Scottsdale 'Square Body' project. Features a powerful 454 Big Block V8 bored .030 over with Hedman headers and Edelbrock carb. Upgraded with new dual gas tanks, 17-inch rims, and fresh tires. This San Diego truck is a solid foundation for a restoration or high-performance hot rod build."

Description
Overview: This 1975 Chevy Scottsdale features a 1973 long bed conversion. It is powered by a high-performance 454 big block engine, bored .030 over, and equipped with Hedman headers and an Edelbrock electric carburetor for improved output.
Features and Updates: The truck has been recently updated with brand new dual gas tanks, a new thermostat, and new hoses. It sits on a set of new 17-inch rims wrapped in fresh tires, providing a modern stance.
Condition and Potential: The truck is not currently running and will require TLC or finishing work to be road-ready. It is a solid project with significant potential, making it a great candidate for a restoration or cruiser build.
History: The vehicle is located in San Diego and is being sold as a project. Prospective buyers should verify the title status and mechanical needs before purchase.
Market Highlights
- The Square Body Market: In 2026, the 'Square Body' Chevy (1973-1987) remains one of the most collectible vintage pickups. In Southern California, rust-free examples are increasingly rare, allowing even non-running projects to command significant premiums from enthusiasts and professional restorers.
- The Big Block Premium: The inclusion of a 454 cubic inch big block engine is a major value-add. This engine configuration is the gold standard for period-correct performance builds, though the 'not running' status introduces a financial risk that many buyers will leverage during negotiations.
- Title and Risk Factors: A rebuilt title permanently reduces a vehicle's market value by 20-35%. Combined with a non-running engine, this vehicle requires a buyer with specific mechanical expertise. While the new wheels and tires add curb appeal, they do not offset the mechanical uncertainty.
