Re: Put about 75 miles on the truck today.
Good to read about all this driving of the classics. I just returned to home after a 3,500 mile trip in my 72 C30 MoHome (402 BB and 4 spd.) and had a great time. Maybe I have too much confidence in these old Chevs and GMCs, but I drive them EVERYWHERE. One Blazer goes long, long miles on hunting trips and I take it into places that most people would never go - and where any breakdown would be a REAL problem. Also, I have bought a 72 GMC on the East Coast, checked it over and drove it straight here to NM - not a problem, and drove my 69 C80 out here from Illinois in a blizzard that started just as I picked it up. These things are to be driven and used - mine look pretty good but I am not going to restore or "pretty up" any of them very soon.
