Is this a good deal??? First time C10 owner
Looked at a solid 1970 swb flare side c10 yesterday and fell in love. I don't want my emotions to dictate my purchase and figured I'd ask the experts to see if this is a good find.
The good:
High desert vehicle all its life
Extremely solid body, only bondo work was around gas cap, and rt frt fender
New bed floor(not installed)
The original tail gate has zero damage! Not a work truck
Fresh (under 1500mi) chevy 350, engine purrs
Swb!!!
The bad:
No power brakes, all drum(I think $750 should cover a frt disc/power conv.)
4spd with granny(not sure if that's a negative, but I'd replace in the future)
Rear window needs replacing
All weather stripping needs replacement(minor)
Comes with a posi rear end with disc brakes, the truck seems really legit. All stock suspension. I think $8k is a good price! What do you guys think? My friend who buys and sells vehicles internationally thinks it's only a $5k truck, but I think he's way off. But this is my first classic vehicle, and I've been drooling over these trucks for ten years now.
What do you guys think?
