1972 c-30 350 4 spd WIW
I just picked this truck up and really like it. I have been out of the 67-72 truck game for a few years and think I got a good deal, but I like old stuff. It has a 350 from a 78-80 truck that was rebuilt before with a larger cam, the 4sp is suppose to be the original one that was behind the big block that came in the truck. Everything works good and it drive pretty good. There is no rust under the truck at all. The only rust I saw was about 3-4 small(dime size) bubbles starting in the PS rocker. I think the cab corners have been patched but not replaced. The inner fender well below the battery has some small rusted areas that I will cut out and patch up. The interior is nice and clean with only a small cut in the dash pad. It is non A/C but has PS and PB's(disk/drum), new radials all around.
Tell me what you think! |

That's a sharp rig. I had a 77 C/30 dually that I loved but it had a 454 in it and the gas mileage was about 6-7 MPG towing or not. I got in bad health and couldn't use it like I wanted so I sold it to a buddy that needed it. I still see it 2 or 3 times a week and have to resist the temptation to buy it back. Good luck with your truck.

Looks real sharp for an old tow rig for sure. From the angle, it looks like a Dodge hood ornament though
