86 C20 Slow build "Chuck"

[chillman88]

Hey all, figured I'd put up a build thread. I'm usually very slow when it comes to builds but I'll be updating the thread.

Picked up an 86 c20 with 155k miles on it for a song, no dance required! $350! Got it home and put a new ignition switch in since the P.O. lost the key. Last registered and inspected in 03, he says it was last driven about 5 years ago. Hooked it up to a gas can and plugged up all the vacuum leaks and voila! It starts first crank now!

Floor pans are very bad (almost not there) so I will be looking for a cab at some point. It'll be a good truck though!

350 with a quadrajet, sm465 4 speed, P.O. said it has 2.73 gears but I think he meant 3.73, i'll check the codes today.

I need a voltmeter and an oil pressure gauge, P.O. put them in his other truck.

I drove it off the car dolly, but the front brakes are partially locked up. I also have a brake light on in the dash so maybe the prop valve is just stuck closed? We'll see.
