Just bought my first c10 today, paid 475. Even has a clesn title. Will begin building it as soon as i can get it to start so i can drive it home. Its been a long time since i have toiched points ignition and shes got weak spark and doesnt fire up but im excited and hope to see what this forum has to offer for tips and inspiration for me. Luckily i have the old trusty volvo for a parts runner!

Re: first c10, new project begins

Good find there, especially at that price. I do like long wheel bases, especially on a fleetside.

So, what is the "X" on that car's head lights for?

Heck for $475, I would have been happy just to get the power front disks (I assume) and sliding back glass.

Ya done good!

Re: first c10, new project begins

Not a 4x4 just looks like it haha. The x on the headlights is to make fun of all the kids in town who do it that autocross, something about holding the glass in place a bit if they wreck? The look on their faces when a turbocharged volvo blows them by is priceless. Hopefuy i can get this beast started up and taken home, broke oit an actron test tool thats older than i am to fix her!

Update in case anyone was wondering, my brand new points were trash out of the box. Another new set and it runs perfect!
