Bought another one - 1971 C20 !!!
Well, found a truck we just had to get. It is a one owner 1971 C20 with only 91,000 acual miles. Was sitting for about a year, transmission was toasted, was told 350 motor was good but it had a spun rod bearing. Timing chain went out and was replaced at some time and all the pieces were in the oil pump screen, might have caused the rod problem.
It was pretty dirty as the pictures tell, but looked pretty solid overall, the cab is one of the best Iowa cabs I have seen. Inner rockers and cab supports are intact, a few holes in the cab corners and it will need rockers some time,just a few holes, and some repair minor repair under the vents near the floor. Battery got the inner fender and fender cup, but not to bad overall. Has a solid wood bed floor, but tailgate is pretty abused.
Have some pics here of it sitting in the shed, pics of myself, my sons and the original owner, and some engine/trans removal pics. We spent a lot of time just cleaning everthing and fixing some things. Will post some after the fixup pics later. What do you think of her ???
