Re: Newbie: red flags when shopping

WELCOME TO THE BOARD

a 69 with discs is a modifyed truck they only came with drum brakes so check that the front and rear axels have the same bolt pattern and also check to see if they work properly in a panic stop// NO RUST i've seen some norust owners that alto theres huge gapping holes from cancer still look you in the eye and tell you how solid it is// basically its like buying any 40 yearold vehicle expect the worse ask questions and if they cant show reciepts for stuff they claim to have had done chances are its a story// just needs a good tuneup usually means in a thousand miles or less you get to replace the engine ETC ETC
