'68 c20
I picked this up a couple weeks ago. I've wanted a 67 or a 68 Chevy in the worst way for the past few years and finally found one for the right price. It's a 68 C20 with a 73 L48 or L65 350 3 speed on the floor. She's not a show queen but looks good rolling down the street! Running and driving with a good battery and a full tank of fuel for $2400, I couldn't say no.
She needs some attention but I like projects. First things on the list: some oil and coolant leaks, clutch chatter in reverse (probably got some oil on it), blown out header flange gasket, a vibration in the drive line that starts at around 40mph, 3spd + 4.56 gears on pizza cutters keeps the rpms pretty high, and a few things to touch up on the body. I guess that's it for now, its a solid base to start from anyway! |
