Re: collectobility of 1969 gmc c30 flatdeck

These trucks have a following...I LOVE them. They make great haulers, tow rigs and are basically cool. HOWEVER...the followwing is a smaller one and they traditionally dont bring all that great money so dont spend stupid money on one unless you really just want it. Another thing to watch is they normally have very low rear gear ratios and max out at 50mpg and get HORRIBLE gas mileage. The bigger brake components can be a little tricky to find sometimes and replacement higher gears are impossible for that HO72. My last one got 2-4 mpg with the factory 327, granny 4 speed and 513 rear. a lot of guys put updated running gear in.
