If I am to believe the notations put down in the owners manual by previous owners, my 89 is 340k and it runs great.  Well the motor works well, need to replace the trans.

Its a 6.2

My 85 c-10 has 87,100 on it and it has been sitting in the woods since 2001.  About two months ago through a battery in it to see if it would crank and dang if the 305 didnt actually fire right up, its a shame the Turbo 350 is blown.

My friend has a 79 c-20  that has 30,000 original miles on it 350/4 spd but the body has basically rotted off around the motor.

thats the best thing about this trucks, they could sit forever and still crank and fire.
