It's about time we saw some real pictures of that truck. Good lord I miss the old square bodies. Scottsdale's, Camper Specials, Fleetsides, K and C series. Badass truck, all the way down to the center caps and beauty rings!! Interior shots?

It served me well. 400.00 up front, 125.00 in tune up, 380 in new tires! Never got stuck with chains on.

1st. My 77 C20.
2nd and 3rd. My 66 C10 before it was taken apart for resto and where it is now.
4th. My 64 GMC 1500.

 

[TJ the Chainsaw Mechanic]

Oh! Can't forget the 64 Chevy Parts truck. lol Now is just a frame with a bed on it. Kinda wish I would have left that truck alone. Oh well. Good parts are for my 66.
Oh yeah, also have an 84 C30. Buddies truck that is kinda of mine now. In other words...he bought it and never took it to his place....been like 3 years now. haha

I don't have what I would call "good" pics of my truck, but here is what I have...

'78 K10 with 350, sm465 4spd, np205 t-case. Has mild cam, Edelbrock 1406 carb, Edelbrock intake, full length headers, true dual exhaust with cherry bombs that dumps on a 45 deg down angle just behind the rear axle. Lifted 4" and rolling on 35" BFG Mud Terrains. Truck is the same year as me! It's a work in progress though... little bit at a time.

Thanks very much, im glad you like it. I miss the hell out of the squares too. The interior is still a work in progress, I feel so ashamed...lol! BTW a 4" all spring lift is on the way to my place. Hope it's here by next weekend

I was gonna write to forget the lift after I read your first post. I think its perfect the way it sits especially if you plan on working it. If you plan on wheeling it longer springs (with no lift) would help. Course you may run into driveshaft issues.

Nice fleet! Your C20 is frigin badass! I wish I could tear down my truck the way you did with your 66. Great job. That is the sexiest straight six I've ever seen.

I can appreciate your position but no work or wheelin for my old truck lol. It's my summer cruiser and occasionally hauls the boat, I baby the hell out of it. A sin to some I'm sure.
I ordered a transfer case drop and the springs have angled seats to keep the driveline at a near stock angle.

TJ: are you on any Chevy truck forums?? I swear I've seen that 292

I hear you. I have a 74' k5 that's so far down the list I almost forget I own it sometimes. I have a 472 caddy and Dana 70s sitting waiting to go in it.

74 K5? That's no easy truck to find. I absolutely love the 73 & 74 models. There's just something about the smaller grills and engine badging I can't get enough of. Lets see a pic of that beauty!

@TJ the Chainsaw Mechanic

33s on your 77'?

Thanks man! Yeah the 77 is one heck of a fun truck. Currently has a 496 BBC in it. Am currently building a 572 for it. lol Yeah, I debated on tearing down the 66. Then just decided to do it. haha Slow process, but will be worth all the time and effort when done.
