Olds powered 1977 C10

I just picked up a Big Suburban 3/4 ton for the family and hauling. I dont need to trucks. So my 77 is up for sale.


1977 Chevy C10 pickup. 2WD 350 Olds engine 700r4 Trans. Flatbed. This is a great truck. Ive been using it as my daily driver. Its got a low mile (12k) fully rebuilt Oldsmobile 350 engine. 1970 .030 over badger pistons, #6 heads, stock cam, dual exhaust, Edelbrock 600 carb (just fully rebuilt with al new parts). 700r4 trans. Floor shifter. Mechanical oil and temp gauges. Good brakes. All lights and signals work. Its had the floors, rockers and cab corners replaced. last fall i replaced all the wood on the bed, hardware, and painted the truck black (rattle can but doesnt look bad). Runs and drives great. I have a new lowering kit i havnt thrown on it yet that i will include with the truck. New 2" lowering springs, new front shocks, and new lowering shackles. BFG radial T/As 245/60-15 front, and 275/60-15 back. Tires are good. It also has a CD player. Ive used this truck to drive daily and pick up motors or move stuff. It has come in really handy. Title in hand and this truck is ready to rock!

The bad. Spedo doesnt work (trans has an electronic sensor) and the wiper fluid doesnt spray.


$2,000 OBO



Im interested in some trades. 1964, 1965, 1966 or 1967 Olds Cutlass or F-85 project, Early chevy II project, good utility trailer or car hauler let me know.

What do you get for gas mileage on this? I'm thinking of putting a 350 Olds with 700 trans in my 73 GMC.

My truck has 3.40 gears and about 27" tires. Now after i rebuilt the carb im getting about 12. But with better exhaust, cam, and alittle more tune i think it should get 15+.

Yep he is gonna use it to haul stuff and drive it on the weekends. Cool guy. He is not an Olds guy, but maybe this will turn him into one. He is gonna keep it the way it is. He just LOVED the truck. I was sad. But it did make me happy that he liked it so much.
