hi im from statesville, nc and i have a 1980 chevy c-30 its a 4-door longbed dually. so far we call it the pig due to it sucked down water when we got it due to a leaking radiator but now it just sucks down gas. the truck itself has a dana 60 rear with i belive a limited slip diff. has a 366 talldeck motor out of a 1987 chevy c-70 24ft box truck and has a turbo400 tranny. the truck hauls anything without a prob had 2 tons of gravel in the back and it ran just fine with no issue of the truck getting up to speed. so far we had to replace the motor which is how it got the 87 motor but we bought it with another 366 that blew. ive had to replace a rotor on it and had to change brakes which was all a big jobsince i have non removable hubs as its a full-float axle. a little about me im 18 and have been working on my truck for a year now and it runs like a champ heres a vid of it running and it has had its belts tightened since the video was taken.
