1971 Chevrolet C-10 4x4 (K-10) I purchased this truck as a project but unfortunately I do not have the time to work on or enjoy this truck. I would consider the truck to be in daily driver condition, and you would be hard pressed to find a truck like this for a lower price. The truck has a 350 with an Edelbrock carb. It is not the original 350. The transmission is a TH350 which shifts fine. The four wheel drive works (lock out hubs), however the transfer case is a little sticky from little use and can be hard to shift. I will try to describe this vehicle as honestly as I can. The truck has NO major rust anywhere. It was restored at some point in its life before I owned it. They did a decent job, however, body work is apparent and is by no means a show quality restoration. The rocker panels are solid as well as the cab corners and under the doors. The cab mounts are in pretty good shape as well. There is no rust around the top of the cab around the windshield. The frame on this truck is EXCELLENT. No corrosion or flaking anywhere from front to back. See the pictures. The truck is inspected until next year. All of the lights and signals work. It has a good set of 33x9.50 tires on factory steel wheels which really give it the tall and skinny look. It has new brake pads in the front as well. The previous owner installed a whole new wiring harness in the truck. On the inside, the dash has not been cut and does not come with a radio. The dash pad is in great shape. The factory bench seat was very worn so put a newer Silverado bench seat in. The factory seat can be included if the buyer desires. I installed the tachometer on the steering column as well as the aftermarket water temperature and oil pressure gauges. The original gauges will be included with the truck as well. The mileage shows 58,454. I cannot tell you if the odometer turned over or not. The truck still has the in-cab fuel tank as well as the jack and handle behind the seat. The heater works very well as well as all of the heater controls. Some of the issues I were to address if I was to keep the truck longer are very minor. The truck could probably use new cab and bed bushings. I would also replace the steering gear box and adjust/bleed the brakes. The ignition switch should be replaced eventually and the fuel level sensor does not work (even though I put a new one in). The drivers side window can be hard to open. There is some misalignment between the doors and cab, but the doors shut fine (and lock). This is a great old truck that turns heads no matter where it goes. I drove this truck every day for several months with very few problems. It goes absolutely anywhere and is great in the snow. While I haven't owned the truck long, I already have a great deal of time and money invested in it. While I hate to sell it, I just do not have the time to give it the love it deserves. The truck will come with several extra parts (if the buyer desires). This includes a better hood, original hubcaps, tail light trim bezels, headlight bezels, the ORIGINAL 1971 owners manual, a spare tire and rim, heater box parts, the original bench seat, and other miscellaneous pieces. Overall, the truck is by no means a show truck, but a solid old truck that would make a great platform for a great restoration or as a cool daily driver. If you have ANY questions or would like to discuss the truck, feel free to email me and we can talk over the phone. In response to some of the questions I have had: - The cab and frame are matching numbers - There are some leaks (transmission pan and rear main oil seal) but nothing major - There is steel over the plywood bedfloor (at least as far as I could reach under the plastic bedliner)
