1985 Chevrolet K20 Truck Scottsdale review from North America
"It just keeps running!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've had to replace the alternator and batteries.
I've also replaced the radiator overflow container, since the original one had a crack down the side of it.
One battery cable has been replaced, since the covering wore off.
Paint is starting to peel off.
Replaced all four tires due to general wear.
General comments?
With a little routine maintenance, this truck is running strong.
It's great in the winter snow with four wheel drive.
It's just hard to start on cold days.
It's a stiff ride, but the cabin has a lot of room.
