Spray-Bombs 67 C-30

Hey gang, I’m still around and I still love these trucks

Just picked up this C-30 today, not really sure what I’m gonna do with it, but it’s cool and needed a home

First on the list is getting it running, was really hoping it would have a 292, but it has a small block (gotta run numbers and see what it is)
It’s missing the fuel pump, dizzy cap, and alt
Gonna see if I can rummage up some used parts tomorrow to try and get it popped off before I go buying anything

Mmmmm C-30

Re: I’m Baaaaack / 67 C-30

Well, I got it running

Started by installing a cap and rotor, a few plug wires, battery cables, and filling the bowl with fuel

Once running I put a new fuel pump and water pump on, and an alternator
Then I put a fuel tank and seat in it, went to start it to prime the fuel line and it lost spark
So I wound up swapping the dizzy after changing the coil and ICM and couldn’t get the screw for the condenser out because the old dizzy had been full of rat crap

Still no juice brakes, but the E-brake works for now

Re: I’m Baaaaack / 67 C-30

FYI, when you work on the carb, it might be good to drop the float in a can of gas, see if it floats. IF you buy a new float, beware the newer made brass floats don't do too well. Plastic is good...

Lovely truck mate, love the patina on it.
If you need a name for it "Mater" will suit it perfect ;-)

Re: I’m Baaaaack / 67 C-30

68Gold/White, good to know about the new brass floats, I’ve still gotta get the part number off the carb so I can find a kit.

OldCreek, I really don’t know much about them. I’m pretty sure they’re older than the truck, but my 69 C-30 has them also...
They’re a split ring wheel, 18”

ZUBZ, thanks

Love it! I have those wheels on my dump truck and I’ve thought they look good.
