Remember the law suits GM went through from the fires that happen when 73 throu early 80's pick-ups were T-boned and the saddle tanks would split and exploded.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
Thought I would add my recent acquisition to this thread. This is a '72 1-Ton I found in the local area and the PO had to let it go due to some business issues. I acquired the truck from a friend with a fresh, never-fired 396 (yes, we've been through all the debate and opinions about whether or not it's new, etc., lol), a good bit of bodywork done to it, the engine compartment and cab have been sprayed, and the key (in my opinion) is I feel I got a really good deal on it. No gas tank in the cab and no tank came with it, hence the question(s) I posed about fuel tank options for the 1-Ton variants.

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
Hi all,
Just picked up this 68 C30 with stake body and PTO dump! 4 speed manual (L-1-2-3), L6 292 and front/rear from an 86 1 ton. Otherwise kept pretty stock over the years, looking to run as is with a little tinkering and tuning. cheers! |

Re: 1 ton dually pics post
OK here we go! Been having trouble cold starting since I got her home (was 70 that day)... been messing with the carb and choke and found the choke cable housing was zip tied and I think slipped, so it would choke but not release any. The tinkering begins...
