That era of g.m. trucks is probably the best trucks ever built. I drive a 70 with 71 axles. I have an R.V. winch in the back with ramps. I can haul mowers & motorcycles. Or I can pull a heavy part into the bed. Yes they are easy to work on especially with the help of fellow bolters. I,ve never seen one for sale that is "done". I would expect to do some work on it. I wouldn,t pay a fortune for a show piece & use it for a daily driver.
