What do you want the truck for, you can do better than $1400 IMO

Re: 1985 Chevy C-10
motor mounts look fine, solid
i dont know how low this guy will go, seems pretty firm. If i have to do it at 1400, or 1300 is it worth it?

Re: 1985 Chevy C-10
Body mounts not motor I had a '81 with almost no rust until you looked underneath it body mounts where way gone and there a PIA to replace. I would be in any hurry to get it look around. How does it only have 93K I don't know about that?

Re: 1985 Chevy C-10
ah sorry. I took a look under the body. Minimal amount of rust, and all the body mounts seem to be in good shape. It belonged to an older couple, the husband actually, ended up going into a nursing home. The wife never drove it after that, until she sold it to the current owner. He then drove it to work everyday (about a 12 mile drive each way).

Re: 1985 Chevy C-10
85 is a good year I think. So I'd say go for it!
