Hello all. Planning to pick up an 86 C10 today. V6 - 3 on the tree with 46k miles.

There is typical northeast rust for a 26 year old truck, it is somewhat beat up cosmetically, the gas gauge doesn't work, and the dash brake light is perpetually on, but it runs and drives solid.

I am wondering if there are any common or specific problems with this model/year that I should look out for.

Also, what are some good parts vendors? I would most likely only do factory restoration, and no customization...maybe some wheels.

Thanks,
Aaron
