Hello from Alabama
« on: December 17, 2016, 08:58:24 pm »
Bought an 85 C10 from a friend who's dad bought it new. It has 20000 original miles. It has 4 new tires because the originals dry rotted. I have drained the tanks, rebuilt the carb and replaced one of the vacuum lines. I was very lucky and I have only put 1000 miles on it. It has really been fun to drive. I have a lot to learn as this is my first Chevy.

thanks

Thanks guys. I can't decide if I should save it, sell it or drive it.... so I'm driving it on pretty days for now.
