I have searched, but could not find any information concerning the towing capacity for these old trucks. I have a stock 64 c10 SWB with a 283 and 3spd and was wondering if you think it would be able to handle towing a moderately sized pontoon boat (18-20ft 3000lbs or so) on backroads-not the interstate if the brakes were updated to disk on the front.

Or do you think I would be better off looking for a used 80's model c20 for my towing needs?
