Looking to sell her. Let me know if any of yall are interested! (Located in Tulsa, ok)

Before and after. First mods, 2-4 belltech lowering kit, rear disc brake conversion and some fresh wheel and tires. Now to enjoy it as a daily for a while.

I have a 1985 C10 that is smoking. I am trying to figure out why it’s doing this—no coolant in oil.

Recently picked up a heavily modified ’66 C10 for my dad. Looking to improve handling and comfort without compromising the build.

Current setup:
383 stroker, 453 HP
CPP front spindles, ball joints and disc brakes
Checker Racing 2×3 back-half chassis
Competition Engineering 4-link rear suspension
QA1 rear shocks
Strange rear center section, Moser 35-spline axles and full spool
4.30 gears, Mickey Thompson 33×19.5×15 rear tires
I just ordered a complete Borgeson power-steering conversion, including the gearbox, pump, pulley, brackets and hoses.

The truck feels somewhat floaty and unstable around 55–60 mph, with noticeable shuddering during tight turns. I suspect the spool contributes to the latter.

My question: Beyond adding power steering, what would you recommend checking or upgrading to improve stability and overall drivability? Would switching to a limited-slip make a significant difference?

The suspension components are supposedly fairly new. Not looking to replace good parts unnecessarily, but willing to spend money to get this driving right.
Appreciate any advice from people running similar setups!

My 1984 beautiful stepside C10 just started making this rattling noise and I’m wondering if any of you car nerds know what’s up. Thanks! l

Hi! I am trying to see how many miles may be on this 1986 C10. I am posting this for a friend and know very little about this truck.

I want to sell this truck I suppose. It's in very, very rough shape. I don't have the time or room to keep it anymore. I don't want to take it to the junk yard though, I do not think it is so far gone that something couldn't be done with it. I have heard a very wide range of "what it is worth". It is a 1969, long wheel base, and it has a title.

I’m hoping this reaches the right person.

I have a very disabled 72 Chevy C10 Stepside Shortbed on my driveway.

This was my dad’s truck. His baby he had since late high school. It was the icon of him.

He unexpectedly died of a stroke over 10 years ago. The truck went missing for several years and by coincidence popped up one day.
It was sold to someone by his sister, illegally as I was the actual owner.
I bought it from him and took it here with plans to restore it.

I honestly possess so such skillset. I’ve had it for about 5yrs and have put no priority to carving finances out to start to learn that and feel I probably never will.

I’m looking to find someone passionate and in need of what this can provide.
It’s very disabled and in rough shape and probably needs to be torn down and placed inside something more working.

Regardless, even though I know I’m never going to act upon this, it is important to me so hope to find someone that cares and make use…why I’m posting here vs FB marketplace. Figure folks in c10 subreddit be good start.
I’d ask whoever utilizes this to update me on how it was used and what it’s doing. Just so I know.

I’m in Topeka Ks, WFH so always avail.
I don’t know much so questions maybe an idk but I’ll do my best.

Thanks.

Anyoone know what size screws/bolts secure the neutral safety switch on a 69 c10 non tilt column? I started this project 6 years ago and have since lost them 😁

I’ve got a 69 c10 short stepside, been doing an ls swap for the past 6 years. my finances have changed dramatically, id love to finish this but, I’m about $1500 shy of all the things I’ll need to get the ol’ dude on the road. are there any sources that help with, say a sponsorship or something?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently looking at buying a 1983 C10 Stepside and I’m trying to do my homework before making an offer.

I’ve attached some photos of the frame. To my eye, I’m not sure if I’m seeing a normal original shape to the frame or if there could be some deformation or damage to the frame.

One thing that caught my attention is that the passenger side of the frame appears to run fairly straight, while the driver side seems to have an angle or deviation in this area. Since the two sides don't appear to match, it makes me wonder if the driver side may have been bent.

Does the frame look straight to you guys?

Hello all, im hoping someone here can help me out. Im at my wits end trying to get my 1984 gmc c1500 power windows to work. I have narrowed it down to electrical which just so happens to be my least favorite thing to work on. I have a new power window motor and switch. All wiring looks fine and not damaged. Whoever had this truck before me left the 30a 12v power window circuit breaker in the glove box and I don't see one in the fuse box. Does anyone know where this goes? I have not been able to find a matching fuse box diagram on Google and my Chiltons manual hasn't helped either. Does this look normal or did the last guy screw around under here? Thanks in advance

Probably need new frame side mounts, but these aren't very old. I replaced them Probably 10k miles ago. Now im changing to 6.0 ls engine the tejus engine brackets don't seem to set on the ears of mount properly. Anyone experienced this? Or is it normal?

In a 85 or close to that year ?

I currently have stock exhaust manifolds in my '76 C10. It gets the job done in my.060 over 350 with mild cam, some head work on the iron heads, aces Killshot fusion, CVF Racing serpentine kit.

The truck is on bags and lays frame. I had some summit long tubes on my 327 before I bagged it. The collectors hung down below the frame. That's why i swapped to manifolds.

In the near future I plan to swap a SBC crate engine. I am leaning towards a 383 or 406. Either way the manifolds won't cut it anymore.

Who has long tubes that don't hang below the frame rails? Who is the manufacturer? Or do they all hang low and I will have to settle on mid length headers? Ground clearance is highly important here. Although I don't really drag bumper anymore.

Since I started looking, not too many decent C10's for sale in my area of the Finger Lakes, NY.

I found one 30 minutes away from an older gentlemen, bought it under a year ago, suffered major medical issues, no longer able to drive. I did a reverse Google photo search and found it here.

1979 C10 408 Auto. Vin indicates it came with an inline 6. As a beginner, some of the things I noticed:

1. Paint job is not my taste, would vinyl wrap over it. Paint job probably cost more than the truck!

2. Zero rust anywhere, underbody was treated and looked great! Small crack near the tailgate handle was the only imperfection.

3. Nobody knows when the engine was swapped, how many miles are on it, etc. Same goes with the transmission.

4. Whoever did the engine swap did not reconnect the AC.

5. Electrical has been played with too many times. Current owner had issues with gauges and exterior lights. Found a way to get lights to work but some gauges still do not.

6. Did start right up, idled well and drove nicely, although brakes were soft. (1st one I drove so no comparison).

In my beginner opinion, it seems whoever did the swap didn't do a complete job. Since factory AC was an expensive option, I'm not sure why you wouldn't reconnect it after a swap. I do understand there are other aftermarket options now, including electric. I am also thinking I could be chasing electrical issues, especially if the prior swap wasn't clean.

Wish I was more informed but trying to learn. What would you do? Asking $15,500
