Nice to meet you all! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey Everyone,

I finally just got my account activated and I am happy to be here.

I have made the transition from aircooled vws to american muscle and I love it - I just dont know as much but cant wait to learn.

I picked up a 69 c10 on craigslist for $1800. It has a solid 350 in it and i drove it home 70 miles with no problems and so far I havent run into any problems.

Cosmetically it needs some work but it runs well and sounds awesome!

Ill post some pictures below, let me know what you all think and I look forward to becoming friends with everyone. Oh and I am in Santa Clarita, CA. Just 5 mins from Magic Mountain

Hello and welcome to the site! That's an awesome looking truck you got there, and a STEAL for the money. I rotated your pictures for you. I can't wait to see it progress as you put time and TLC into it.

Here are so photos of the motor.

Sorry if the pictures are crap, it was a cell phone and i still cant figure out why they are sideways. Theyre fine on my computer

67_C-30 · 03-11-2014, 11:13 PM

Welcome to the board!

It may be a stock 350 internally (can't tell with not knowing what's inside, hearing it run, etc.) , but it has an aftermarket aluminum intake, carb, and headers on it.
