Mine was an "Original" 66 C10 BBW with a 327 cu in.....Only by the Grace of the good Lord I decided to change the front and rear seal because it was leaking......Found a broke main bolt, found that the motor was half way rebuilt...dropped the crank and put new rings etc....problem was they didn't clean up the cylinder walls. I ended up having to have the motor rebuilt and had to add a sleeve in one cylinder because it was was out and I didn't want to bore it .60 over.

People buying these things and reselling them as a one or two owner vehicle trying to get premium money....But Like I have always said...As long as my heart is in the right place Im good.....Karma tends to come back and haunt some.
