Hi there and greets from the Dutch flatlands!
I very recently got myself into an old chevy truck ![]() ![]() It's a KS20934, originaly form '71 though the licence says '73, only 38.XXX km on it! It has been originally rebuild directly after the factory with a solid "hoodcover" hosting an extra seating row and a large storage at the back for pressure bottles and a big water pump (which is gone). It had been in a French farmyard for a couple of years, the previous owner bought it directly from the fire dept. but didn't drive it too much before it broke down (clutch), he had to sell because of money issues. Since I come from a farm with forests around and I'm into forestry the 4x4 manual is great for me, looking to use it for personal transport, haulages of firewood and to get my bands around (band van :P). Since I got it I put some 2000 dollars in it, new clutch, tires, electrics, seatbelts (there were none :P), filters, plugs and some small jobs. It runs GREAT, love the power and the sound (I'm new to petrol ![]() I'm looking to keep it fire dept. original, needs some rust busting on the plate work and some restoration of decals, chassis is rock solid. I'm looking to put in a gas (lpg) system since the fuel prices overhere are crazy and the fuelconsumption of this 2500kg truck is not very friendly (especially not for a student :P), the cost of installing etc will be outdone in only 6k km's. Sadly I don't have any proper pictures yet but will upload some in the next week ![]() The reason I registered with your forum is to get in touch with fellow enthusiasts and for some technical details/repair suggestions here and there ![]() Cya! ![]() Last edited by KS20934; 02-26-2014 at 05:05 AM. |
