'87 C-30 454
 

I'm going to look at an '87 Chevy C-30 Rollback with a 454, 4-Speed that is for sale here locally. I've never owned a truck this new and am looking for opinions on both the truck and the engine. Also what to look for when I go to check over this truck.

Any info would be appreciated.

check the chassis for cracks near the cab and about a foot back or forward.. make sure the cab mounts and floor boards are good
at some point there should be a PTO and check the lines for cracking and bulging alsomake sure it is attached to the frame well

Also check the frame for rust through and or stress cracks, should be easy to check in the back once the bed is up. Check body mounts, stress at spring mounts/perches, of course rockers, cab corners, floor supports, cab bushings, etc.

I'll be checking the truck out this week.
