Blue Bomber - 1970 Chevy C/20
After a 3 year hiatus, I decided to jump back into the 67-72 camp. I found this 70 C/20 with a 402/TH400/3.54 on Bring A Trailer.
The auction was here: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...rolet-c20-cst/ I took delivery here in Connecticut following a quick 5 day haul from Oregon. Drove it around 20 miles. It drives and rides great. The brakes need work as there's a long throw then it really grabs the fronts, practically locking them up. The horn doesn't work and the license plate light doesn't work (the bulb is fine) Otherwise I'm beyond happy with it. It will definitely take some will power to keep my right foot from getting heavy. The big block is effortless. First thing I did was clean it with Comet and a Scotchbrite sponge. I'm pretty happy with the results. I scored some ok condition period correct hubcaps on Ebay that I cleaned up and a friend is repainting the centers to that I'll be installing later in the week.
