My New 61
 
Hey,
Just picked up this 61 Chevy c-30 from a neighbor for $350. When I went to load it I realized the brakes were stuck. It was then that I realized I might have gotten more than I bargained for. I was right. I got the truck rolling and got it home and looked under the hood was a NAKED 235 motor. Just the block, head and covers. I started digging around the parts in the cab and found all kind of reciepts and new parts in plastic. I gave the previous owner a call and he had failed to mention that he had just had the motor bored over and rebuilt and the head redone. Maybe it was a good deal after all?

as long as nothing has rusted internally you probably got a really good deal. definitely need to see some pics.

You could also use a photo resizer like Picture resize or many others. Google picture resize or jpg resize and you should find a few.

Thanks for the linky, it worked great. My plans for the truck are to drop in a cummins 12v/auto combination, 4 wheel discs, and an old school steel flatbed so I can use the truck for my auction business to pull trailers and as the PA truck. The truck will probably get hand lettered white over red paint with the business name too...hopefully someday!:chevy:
