Re: Rehabilitating a ‘71 C-10 Cheyenne

I gotta say, it's been comical dealing with them, when not frustrating.

This is the truck that they agreed to put a 4-bolt in, to replace the 2-bolt (I know, I know, the difference is negligible) They're taking it back out to give me what was agreed to on the paperwork.

My favorite is when I called to ask where things were a couple weeks ago. They went on about how something wasn't right with the gas tank, connections, something. nothing made sense. They couldn't find the right replacement and the tank was a rusty mess.

I went to see, and as I walk up to the truck, I immediately saw the problem. They had pulled out a saddle tank (That truck has two saddle tanks to go with the original tank)

The kid was all of 27 maybe... and had no clue that these old trucks have a tank behind the seat - let alone had the marbles in his head to think "hey, I see three lines going someplace, maybe I better check it, considering what I pulled looks home-made".

hah! I'm not even old... but that made me feel it.
