1979 Chevrolet Scottsdale 10 review from North America
"Decent for a freebie"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Steering squealed like all GM vehicles of that era.
Tires dry rotted.
Wiper motor died.
Heater fan died.
General comments?
I had to fix the rust holes with Juicy Fruit & White-out to get it inspected.
The truck had sat for almost 2 years and has no pulling power.
The 4WD works great, ran in 4 feet of snow, never got stuck.
