73-87 Daily Driver - Need Help

[Mattsch18]

my personal openion is to get kinda what i did and get a 1970's c10 2wd with a 350 in it, and a th350 transmission. not the best gas milage but the parts are everywhere, and eveybody and there brother who are decent mechanics can work on them. i just picked mine up for around $2000 and itll need a few things here and there to be a great DD but it goes from point a to b pretty well at the moment. granted your not going to get the best milage but from what iv heard the 350's are one of the most reliable motors ever. id take reliability over economy anyday. but thats just me! good luck hunting!
