Hey all,

Well i caught the bug, I've had my 72 Longhorn for 5 years now and I saw a clean 1970 C10 Long bed come up on craigslist in Napa CA and just had to have it. Less than 24 hours later it was in my driveway with my wife watching and shaking her head.

Anyways the current plan is using the C10 as my run around truck while I do bigger better upgrades on the 4x4 Longhorn. She runs and drives great next to no rust, has a 292 inline 6, 3 on the tree, a wood bed, is super straight that about it no power steering no power breaks no radio just a plain Jane work truck. I'm not sure what my plan is yet with her so let me hear your suggestions!

Thank you! The engine needs the exhaust and intake manifold gaskets redone really bad, it sounds like crap but the motor run smooth and pulls hard.

It even came with a New Vehicle Warranty!
