Crappy audio.
Happy with the overall condition.
Frame and under carriage are beautiful.
Looks like it was well cared for.
Fluids were clean.
Trans fluid was bright red,has trans cooler...looks like it was added.
Oil was clean.
Surprised it ran so smooth with the point type ignition..notice the ignition box on the firewall?
Needs a complete brake overhaul
Grabbed good shots with my dslr..will post up some shots soon.
Pretty happy with my $2500 investment.

Looks and seems to run well. I might need to get more details when I do the A/C in my daughter's truck.

She has a 1973 C30 camper special.

Are you referring to the blue finned box by the brake booster? If so, that's a battery isolator for dual batteries.

Oil leaks suck..but guessing the lack of an oil cap caused all this.Bet it will look great after some oven cleaner!
