New Truck
I just found a 83 Chevy Silverado Shortbed Fleetside which has a 305 and a th350. The guy that i bought it from had it for 12 years and put brand new 31" michilin tires on it. I got him to sell it for $700. I thought it was a real STEAL. It didnt run when i got it because the coil was bad. Replaced coil, module, cap, and rotor, and it fired right up. The only flaws in the truck is that it had a dented in driverside door as if someone had kicked it in and it had a 800cfm Holley on it which floods the motor out, and it has minor body rot. I went to a local junk yard and found a door that even matched the colors almost perfectly. She is a beauty and runs great other than the carb being to big.
