New 1970 c20
1970 c20 250 42000 original miles with a 4 speed. drove it home 3 hours without any problems. went down the road perfectly straight. Originally from Tennessee up until about a month ago when the guy i bought it from purchased it. Which makes me the 3rd owner. Has all the original paper work and even has the dealership sticker on the tailgate.
plans: put classic plates on it and enjoy it all summer. Gonna leave everything the way it is. for now

Re: New 1970 c20
Cool truck, some will say real trucks have three pedals. Glad to hear that you are leaving it as is and just gonna drive it. Is the spid still on the inside of the glove door and have you tried looking behind or underneath the seat to see if the build sheet is still in the springs?

Re: New 1970 c20
Nice find! Just do me a favor though... get a clutch pedal pad on there right away. It's an accident waiting to happen. Especially with wet shoes.

Re: New 1970 c20
Thanks guys . It does need a few things like the rubber on the pedals, the emergency brake and radio doesn't work. Also it has drums all around and no power steering .i sure do love it tho

Re: New 1970 c20
Very clean C 20. Nice color contrasts, medium gold metalic-white top+front bumper and just lower moldings.Wow, original steering wheel still intact. Hopefully that wheel color will be reproduced someday
 Interestingly enough, SPID should list your beige dash steering column and off white seat and door panels as "Gold vinyl trim".
