Re: Old member, new truck
The body looks to be in decent shape. How good is the LS swap, and what are your plans for the truck?

Re: Old member, new truck
LS swap is good, has a strong running cammed motor. I dont plan on doing much other than a small amount of interior work. It's gonna be a driver.

Re: Old member, new truck
Sold a pretty nice 82 C10 SWB for $8500 back in early 2021. Probably worth $15k-$20k today.
