    Cab Leaks- Need advice.

    The first hole was near where the hood release lever is at the kick panel. Thanks for the advice. I’m hoping to work on it soon. It’s been snowing here though. I might have to boot my wife’s car out of the garage. Haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking to buy C10/K10....Need advice

    Thank you everyone for the advice though. I ended up buying the truck last Friday. Drove it 2.5 hours and it drive great. I actually got 15.2 mpg which I was surprised about and 1.5 hours of my trip was back country roads. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’m going to go look at it one more time today. I’m going to bring a magnet with me to check for bondo. I’m also going to crawl underneath for a better inspection for rust, leaks, etc. Any specific areas i should look at thoroughly? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Here is another photo that shows the floor a little better and the vin plate. Also some additional photos. The interior does need some work to make it look good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking to buy C10/K10....Need advice

    Hi, I'm new to this forum. I've always wanted a square body pickup. When I was around 7, my step dad owned one and I have loved them ever since.
