Newbie from France

[LeBeepBeep]

Hello from France everyone,

Just a quick presentation after my new "financial mistake", a 77 C20 Scottsdale with a 350/TH400 combo.
I will post pics a little bit later when I get the chance to get some good ones.

It's in great shape, just a little bit of surface rust on the frame and some "patina" here and there.
It does need a full service before I can drive it and I need to take care of a few leaks.

I have plans to modify it a little bit in the future :
-Add a tach, preferably a factory style one.
-Wheels and tires, 16,5 tire are almost impossible to find here
-Probably a 3/4 lowering kit to make it easier to load stuff into the bed (mainly motorcycles)
And the list goes on..

But for now I just want to enjoy the truck as is.

Hard to find a 16.5" anywhere these days!
There are aftermarket 16x8s on my 77C20 and im not convinced lowering a 20 is reality - might want to plan on something different.
Good luck with your new truck.

Welcome from the Texas Panhandle.
Instead of lowering a 3/4 ton for loading motorcycles, just get a longer ramp.

Very nice! The background scenery almost looks like central Texas.... amazing to see where in the world these old American trucks are at now.
