Re: 1962 Chevy C20

Initial evaluation:

235 w/ rochester 1bbl
4 speed w/ granny gear (maybe a saginaw?)

So dirty, stinky

Brakes shot!

Rust isn't everywhere but its pretty bad in the rocker sills, posts, door bottoms, hood (around lights) and especially the INSIDE ceiling.

Major oil leak(s)

Syncros in 3 & 4 shot (double clutching helps the grinding)

Electrical system seems to be partially working (at times)

Battery shot-

Tires dry rotted

EVERYTHING MUST BE LUBRICATED!!!

Glass good- a little frosted on edges and small chip in windshield

no smoke form engine, feels strong, no knocks, carb is just one big flat spot...

steering feels solid with v. little play (update: found service records for new ball joints, tie rods etc in 86')

Owners manual plus registration from WAY back

Radio turned on once but no sound...

glove box destroyed

seat needs work

6" of pine needles in bed, some pieces of wood unbolted...but looks usable

no seat belts

antenna broken

DS headlight cover missing



Pictures:
Cleaning Day pictures....the window had been left partially down so the inside was weeeetttt.
