I'm about to start drivers ed, and I wanted to know where I could find an old Chevy Truck, preferably a C10 1969.

Good year. Long wheel base trucks are easy to find, it the short beds that cost $$$. Try old car traders and truck trader magazines along with thrifty nickles and such. Treat your old Chevy like a lady and she'll get you out of trouble. Abuse her and you'll be walking.

good year, but if i were you i'd get a newer chevy truck with TBI or SFI. That way, the truck is a lot more reliable, and a lot less maintenance will be required(tune ups, timing, etc.). Also, you can just start it and go in the winter, no warm up time. It will also get better gas mileage. I would look into an '88 or newer Chevy truck with maybe a 305 v8 and a manual transmission. That would get much better gas mileage than the truck you're looking for, and it would be easier to manuver and fuel up. I have a '98 Chevy 1500 and it rocks! Best truck ever, also most reliable.

I find very little fault in the chevy. Though 73-79 weren't as good as the earlier. The ford is also a good truck in those years. Not as familiar with them. I like them both but would rather have the chevy due the looks and Small block chevy motor which is easy and cheap to maintain or build up and reliable.

try ebay, motors.ebay.com type in 1969 chevy truck, I havent looked but it may be ones that have been restored, so It may be hard finding one in daily driver shape buy you never know. good luck with it all, I have a 75 myself, but still a chevy truck is a chevy truck, they rule!

check the junk yards......... just buy some small car to learn to drive and then move up to a re-build or better ride when you master the art of good driving ----- a '69 C-10 is not an easy vehicle to drive or park and the new parking slots are small and the '69 is big ---get it ......drive small to learn then move up....
