My 200 score - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jostrans68 · 01-21-2006, 06:56 PM

its worth fixing minimal rust in cab 2 small holes one put there by PO rockers solid a few bubbles in corners I will no more when I get tank out to clean.bed solid some damage on pass side rear will weld in patch
so heres a few shots after i cleaned the rat dropping and removed moldy seat
also any know of a valu for a c4b edelbrock 4bbl manifold

Oh,I get it.You got the truck for 200 dollars.I`d say it`s worth fixing.I wouldn`t junk the cab if you do find a better one to swap.I`d say the manifold is worth about $25-30 or so.If you bead blast it,maybe more.But,unless you can do that yourself,you`ll spend at least the difference having that done.The old Torquers are sought after and I bought one for $75.

your cab is fine if you have a welder and some metal tools. mine was in the same condition, and as a first time welder and for my first truck, i did both rockers and the floor myself with some patch panels. it's easier than it sounds actually.

edelbrock is a good company, very respected! they've been in business since the early 40's so you know they're doing something right.

Aquivarious · 01-21-2006, 10:01 PM

200 + how much? But does it matter? THESE TRUCKS ARE WORTH IT!

JAKES 68GMC · 01-21-2006, 10:53 PM

Rockers are nice and solid. So is the bed. (appears to be)

jostrans68 · 01-22-2006, 12:28 AM

Here is a picture of one that dad scored here in central Missouri. Everything is there. Motor, drivetran, and alll the body parts are intact. Has a very good hood, pass fender is easily fixable, both weel tubs are good, the front panel of the bed is good, and both doors are 90% rust free and the outer grill is in good shape. All in all, i think we all got a good deal on these trucks
