Re: Starting on the Right Foot

Just remember that being a C30 or C40 it will have at least 4:56 gearing which is not happy on today's roads. You will want to upgrade the rear differential to a later model axle assembly to cope with anything over 45 mph

Re: Starting on the Right Foot

I'm not in love with this one, but at $800 it seems like a good deal still. I really have a craving for a 1960-1962 chevy apache. Usually they seeem to be in the double digits even in rough shape.

Drained the old gas out, tinkered with the hand choke, put a battery in it and been driving it around the place for $390

Lots of these old trucks around. Plus you will probably nearly double your money to get somebody to haul it for you. Transporters nail you for hauling non ops.

Decided to pass, it was going to cost $2k total after shipping.
