70 c10 Worth it? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sorry no pics but I came across a 70 c10 basically an un molested TN truck with a few dents and dings. They are asking $1900 for the truck, a v8 auto with 90k. The truck runs and drives and has a cap on it which has preserved the bed nicely. The only downside I can see is someone cobbed in a floor shift for the auto but I figured stock linkage should be easy to find. I don't really need the truck but it seems like I shouldn't pass it up. Any thoughts?

Around here if it isn't totally rusted out, that would be a steal.

Next we'll hear it's an A/C SWB with a BBC from the factory.

I say go for it provided the frame is sound.

Not a swb truck and no factory air...although it does have some kind of aftermarket air in it. It also has some sort of add on fuel tank (or something) that you fill from inside the drivers side wheel well. I have to go down and look closer, its not perfect but solid. It also has the narrow stainless trim around the body..not sure if thats an upgraded model or not. I just moved here from upstate NY so everything looks good to me!
