1980 Chevrolet Scottsdale 10 review from North America
"Best darn truck on the road.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The old truck doesn't have much wrong with it that I know of.
When I bought the truck, the only thing that we had to do to it is replace the door panel, give it a tune up, and go.
General comments?
I love this old truck. It is my first truck. I wouldn't trade it for a new car anytime.
With just a little bit of money, this truck would be in top shape. It just needs some TLC, which I plan to give it.
The engine has just a little tapping from one of the valves, but it still runs and drives like a charm.
The transmission is a little slow on certain mornings, but it's a 28 year old truck, she has the right to be slow when she wants. She can still peel the rubber off the tires when she wants to though.
The interior is a little rough, but a couple of bucket seats and she'll look better than she does.
