'70 c10

[Ds86C10]

I finally got a '70 c10 like my grandpa had and its what i learned to drive a 3speed in. I've looked at plenty here and the deals either never worked out or the trucks "NOT FOR SALE" as it rots into the ground.. but i found this one on craigslist being sold by a guy that had too many toys and no money left.


it was full of junk but ran great and pulled hard. the guy claimed that the guy before him rattle caned primer all over the truck and its coming off in flakes.






the primer junk comes off pretty easy with red scotchbrite and some elbow grease. it got cold dark and started raining again so i had to stop.

tomorrow ill figure out why there isnt any brake lights and the gas gauge reads pegged at full. its going to be my daily driver starting monday. not bad for a grand
