Re: HELP!! Cant decide.

Welcome to the board! You've come to the right place. My '67 C-30 sat from 1990 until 2004 when I bought it, and it ran terrible when I first got it running. I changed the carb, fuel filter (numerous times - ended up replacing the fuel tank), fuel pump and did a good tune up on it, and I drove it 4 years until last year when I decided to the diesel in it. The original engine was still running, and I got 4 years of good service out of it. You can look at it this way, anything you put on it to see if you can get it running well can be put on a new engine as long as you plan on sticking to the same type engine.
