1979 Chevrolet C10 Scottsdale review from North America
"A great work truck that is very reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine died at 130,000 miles so the engine was rebuilt.
Very rusty and needs new bed.
A tire blew, but from a nail on the road.
General comments?
It may not be the fastest, but it's very reliable and gets from A to B.
The truck only gets sixteen miles per gallon, but I don't drive much so it doesn't really matter.
We have had this for over ten years and it still runs very well.
