Went to look at this 67 CST 327 auto ps pb air big window lwb with my father as he's getting the itch for a c10 again after I bought mine. Described as having "some rust you can fix or drive as is" and being running and driving. Turn out to be a bondo special with nearly every panel needing replacement or patch work including everything from the kick panels down on the cab. The cab supports were basically nonexistent and a few good bumps would knock the cab clear from the frame if you dared to "drive it as is". All for the low asking price of $5500. Unfortunately dad isn't too keen on buying something not in front of him but I think I'm wearing him down on going Roadkill style.
I feel your pain, I'm from southwest Pennsylvania, and there is practically nothing decent near me. There are basically 2 types of trucks available, trucks that are rotted beyond repair, and trucks that have been restored that bring big money.look at it this way, a 2 or 3 day road trip is well worth it versus a months worth of work cutting out rusted panels.
