The older the Chevy, the better. Chevrolet in general is known for it's good quality and craftsmanship! I have a 1989 1500 series Truck and these cars fire up right away. You can put mile after mile on them and they still run good. If there is a problem it's a lot easier to fix yourself or to find someone instead of the newer cars being all computerized. This Truck may look old and have its flaws because it is over 25 years old, but will you be able to say that about your new plastic cheaply made car in 20 some years ?
