I am going to look at this 1969 Chevrolet C10, this is what the ad says;

Leaving area...must sell. asking $9900.00

1972 Grill. Truck is 95% complete. New 350 crate motor, rebuilt 350 transmission, new square bore 4 barrel Holley carb, new carpet, new door panels, new inner and outer fenders, new grill, new grill shell, new bumpers, new exhaust, new inside and outside hardware, new chrome instrument bezzel, new chrome glovebox door, new windshield, new rubber on all glass, new vent windows, new tilt steering column, new blazer gas tank mounted under bed, new 4 core radiator, new paint inside and out.

my questions are...

1) does anyone here no the truck or has anyone looked at it and can tell me more about it?

2) whats it worth in todays market?

3) this will be my first C10, what specific things to look for on a C10? rust areas to check, common problems etc.





this is all the pictures that I have seen of the truck and I did talk with the owner, he said the engine bay and inside cab was all stripped down and painted when the truck was painted red about 7 years ago and after that is when the new crate motor and tranny were installed, not driven much over the last 7 years but some chips int he paint etc. also the truck needs finishing touches such as repair temp gauge, new steering wheel, gas gauge, window wipers, radio and things like that. its a driver! Thanks for any advice or opinions -Scott

I talked with the owner again tonite, said the cab corners where replaced before it was painted but that all that need to be done as far as rust. the bed inside and out was rust free, it also has the front disc conversion kit for 70-72 style, power steering and brakes, bumpers, grille trim and handles are all new etc, heater, speedometer, wipers etc work exhaust is new w/flowmasters... The guy is going througha divorce and needs to sell asap...as of tonite I can get it for 8K but its 2 hours away and I can't get up there till Saturday. I plan on buying it Saturday -Scott
