My neighbor has an '86 Chevy C/10 pickup with the "stepside" style bed. It has a carbed 454 in place of whatever motor came originally (350?). He's a really old guy and just wants it gone so he said $900 takes it.
It runs, drives, 4x4 works, and is a manual transmission with a good clutch. It's a Colorado car so almost no rust. Catch is that it won't pass emissions because it has no cats or EGR in place.
He said the motor has high miles. He got the truck from his brother so I'd be the third owner. Looks like cats and EGR are a couple hundred online.
It seems like a pretty cool rig and runs fine. I just don't know anything about this old Chevy stuff. I have been looking around online to try and figure out what a good price point is but haven't had much luck.
Just thought I'd ask the DSM community whether this is a good deal or if I'm getting into a hunk of junk here.
