What is a good price for a running C10?
Is it possible to do a diesel swap, what engine should i use?
Does anybody sell a lift kit for the 63?

Im looking to build a daily driver that will handle city driving for the most part but also dirt roads, and 85 mph highways. If you have any helpful tips i would love to learn anything i can.
A good price for a class 4 C-10 would run no more than $1000. Class 4 has no restoration but is runable and driveable. It is possible to do a diesel swap(I would use a first generation cummins) There is just ALOT of adapting to do(I wont go through the list) You could also use a durmax...Even more adapting! The cummins would be easier to use because its a 6 cylinder(better low end torque).
