Just thought I'd share the lovely new truck my wife Emma has just brought, 1970 Chevrolet C10 with most of the work done, just a few minor things to do but overall a very solid well restored truck!

Nice looking truck. Think that might be the way i go after my duster. Looking either for a C10 or d100. Those 70s trucks, just look so cool and are just as "muscle" as any car

Very nice, Ross, I do like those too. Sure I've seen it, or a similar one around Watford, earlier this year... did you buy it locally?

Drives really nice, still getting used to the brakes though, think they need a bleed & service or it could be that Iām not used to a heavy truck? My dart has discs all round so stops rapidly, this has front discs, rear drums!

That looks superb, matching colour to the A body as well.
We're sort of hunting for a 55 - 57 truck for Mandie, obviously a popular idea for the other halves!
