    New member from Montana, '81 C10 longbed, 250 6 cylinder

    Wow, nice pickup! I owned an '81 Custom Deluxe SWB C/10, 250, 3 speed on the column for 11 years, it was my daily driver. Very simple and reliable. I bought mine used for $1,400 in Alaska. Thank you for sharing the photos and welcome from northwest Arizona.

    What y'all think, patch it and run it?

    Seen that happen a few times. Sidewalls blow, tread separates, not pretty and can cause some damage. It pays to check the date code and the tires physically.

    Cowl Screen

    I would do it with the door screen. Where I live, there are no trees, just dust.

    New to the square body group!

    Welcome from Arizona as well. I had a house painted that color yellow with white trim in AK at one time. Nothing like a bright color to make the day!

    Q jet choke question

    There is a manual choke kit for the quadra jet, I've bought a couple over the years. I grew up with manual chokes and manual transmissions and prefer both.

    Welcome from NW AZ Sid! Both your rigs look nice, I'm a '75 through '81 squarebody owner previously, fun trucks to work on. Looks like you'll have plenty of hours in on both of them.

    Spark, Fuel, Crank but won't start

    I immediatley thought of a faulty ignition module. Usually they fail 100% but it couldn't hurt to check.

    Yes, Welcome from NW AZ. I went through Odessa last spring, I've never seen so much traffic before. I was on a scouting trip to relocate and sightsee.

    Heater Core how to

    You seem to do a jobs thoroughly and with quality parts, I can appreciate that. Working as a fleet mechanic for many years, I've had to go back and repair jobs that were completed sloppily and with used parts that should not have been reused. Good work deserves praise in my opinion.

    Well, I just sold my '75 K/20 Scottsdale today. I've had it 5 years and it was my pet. I still need to sell a 1972 Olds Toronado, 1972 Olds Ninety Eight coupe and a 1983 Olds Toronado diesel. After that, all I have is an XV1700 Yamaha and a 2013 Nissan Frontier then I'll be a gypsy again.

    Haynes manual suggest silicone dielectric grease for ignition module?

    I've always used "dielectric grease" it's never failed and I got it when I worked for the USCG. They used it on their Jayhawk helicopters, good enough for me.

    Cab and bed gap

    It may be due to a different year box than the cab. I'm not familiar with any differences but I've seen mismatched boxes installed on frames that don't quite match up.
