Tony,

Does the book actually say that a C-80 is possible with a GVW as low as 18,500? All the C-80's that I know of usually have a GVW closer to 32,000.

The 1964 Silver Book sounds interesting. Where would be the best place to find one? (other than E-bay).

If that truck is all original with the original emblems and the original engine, it most likely will be a 409.
