You never know when you might need to cross a river.

....or decide to go fishing.

Wow man, I didn't even know these things could float! Looks like I'm going fishing tommarrow. I'll check back in and let you guys know how they were bite'n.

Seeing the motor off to the side and rather small for the truck, I'm thinking it's a sail truck with the mast removed. Can anyone see if there is a keel under there?

That there is a rare factory option.

Actually, it does work, and very well, assuming proper handling.

Corvette outboard engine option?

**special-K** · 05-15-2015, 06:50 AM

That's just another C/10 Delmar. It was a special promotion model only offered in the coastal states

If you drain the water out of the glove box maybe post pic of the SPID

Be careful! You have to have the wood bed if you want to float. The steel bed trucks just sink.

the only bad thing that GM had with the c10 boats is the seaweed wraps around the driveshaft. hahahaha
