buying this truck on friday not bad imo considering all it needs is either the carb rebuilt or a new one. (they rebuilt the carb but didnt do it right and now it wont pump fuel lol)

i think its worth it just to get a hold of that badass tinker bell floor mat

I bet a really big ol' fat girl drove that truck.

Looks like the body is in good shape. I'd say its worth $800 bucks.

Long as the rust is surface its definitely a good buy

dont waste your time rebuilding it, get a re-manufactured carb from holley for the low and simply bolt it on lol

im pretty sure you can get a refurb Demon carb (made by Holley) for the price of a rebuild kit for a Holley


Or be a boss say fuck it and throw a 750 double pumper on it

find someone who knows how to work on a quadrajet and it will run like a brand new one. most people just cant really tune them because they dont know how so they call them junk and buy a new carb for its shininess.

sweet, tracking the topic for progress, love me a c10... same deal down here, i looked @ one for 1500$ a week ago, it was missing 1/2 the roof and the drip rail had been shaved and bondod

Short bed (made from a sectioned long bed) i mean it was bad, and he was very firm at 1500 ( i wouldnt have taken it home for free )
