1990 Chevrolet C1500 Silverado review from North America
"A real sport utility vehicle, from work to the strip"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced clutch and fly wheel on transmission and minor transmission work done at 80,000 miles due to heavy pulling replaced the alternator at 85,000 small oil leak at 120,000 behind timing chain (replaced) chain since work needed to be done in general area small transmission fluid leak at 140,000 seals on bell housing replaced.
General comments?
This truck was first used as a work truck now its used as a daily driver for my son he since has done some tuning and the truck takes to it like it was meant to be the truck is seriously quick just behind those f-bodies and rides smoother than ever on 20 inch wheels and tires.
