Hi from NorCal, new 1970 C20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Howdy from San Francisco, a fun place to street-park a long bed pickup! Not my first old Chevy but it is my first truck. I got it pretty cheap on eBay with the idea of fix, enjoy for a bit, and re-sell. It's solid and rust-free with a rebuilt engine, and plenty of TLC items needed. I think I got a good deal at $5,500 but am learning the thrills of buying vehicles sight unseen.... Looks pretty good after just a soap-and water wash though.

350 / 4-speed / AC cab / Factory tach (and it works!)

Very nice!

Make sure those drum brakes are 100% and the E-Brake holds when you stop at a light/sign going up one of those hills. That would be my priority. -Brian

A 4 speed in Frisco? That will make a Truck Driver out of you.
