[@GMCTIM]

Love these old trucks ! My first was a 62 custom, 283, pwr gld , give almost anything to have it back ! 👍✌

[@NemesisDawn]

Those old inline 6cyl engines were pretty simple and very reliable. At least in my experience.

[@Foock57]

Six years ago I also rescued a c10 same color and same engine!!! Congrats!!! Nice truck!!

[@carlstclair-it8ij]

look at how much space in that engine compartment compared to today"s trucks.

[@reneduarte9695]

All the new technology know in the trucks and ac its crazy tho i get u

[@jeffscott8323]

Lot of them back then had that color green I had a 61 belair

[@Harrybowles1969]

So simple and so dependable. This is up there on my want list

[@richardunicorn7879]

Cool truck! Keep it the way it is, just fix the mechanics of it.

[@AryDontSurf]

That's so badass how much of it is original, sometimes the neglect is a good thing.

[@carvlogs6607]

The truck seemed to be all original. The oil bath air filter was still on the truck and full of oil .

[@myjunkertravels6897]

She got a sweet patina man. Don't mess that up. Their only original once when it comes to the paint job. Even when it goes patina queen, it's still nicer than a new paint coating.

[@jeffcrompton2767]

I would love to have something like this. Looks like someone parked it ,took the battery and walked away.

[@austinaufrance4996]

I got a 66 same engine original tough as shit they don't make them like they used to

[@gbear34]

Got a 1966 - I wish mine had been as easy to start as this one hahaha.

[@adriantomlin1362]

Good job gettin it started. I sure as hell would not have put an open gas can next to a small ass battery!! Vapors from both. Kafrickrenboom!!!!

[@brian8394]

All I need is the driver door, the grille and bumpers.

[@slycombs7726]

My grandfather used to have a c10 like that I remember being given a ride to school in it good times till they weren’t the truck rolled and was deemed totaled by the insurance company :(

[@rustyjeep2469]

Started right up!

[@oldcroneysgarage9739]

[@DXFXmc]

[@lucasgastonbaez7439]

[@ukmud6218]

we tend not to get vehicles like this in the UK,our rust is king and kills everything

[@Shane-Singleton]

I've heard that about Lancia especially.

[@kbtruck65blair64]

Cool

[@cesartrex1870]

So how's the truck . What did u do to it ?

[@carvlogs6607]

The truck was great. I went over all the breaks and fluids and suspension , drove it for a bit and sold it. Now I'm on to the next project (1984 chevy k10 4x4 short bed diesel)

[@johnmartis6407]

What engine 235 ci. ?

[@peattrdcustoms7610]

is that a 6 volt battery or just one out of a honda lol

[@carvlogs6607]

yup. honda civic battery . easy to carry around.

[@elenadumitrache6537]

Bun ar trebui să aveți grijă cu un dozaj și perucă se apropia să nu mai facă Călin lele lele lele lele lele

[@barryphillips7327]

LOOSE battery sitting right next to an OPEN fuel can, major fire hazard!!!!! Battery falls over provides ignition for the fuel, BOOM!

[@cesartrex1870]

That would just get rid of the rust and the truck will still be running .lol
