After trying to purchase a much nicer truck from a fellow member but not being able to make my schedule work, I found this about 30 minutes from my house. Not as nice as I was looking for but for less than $1000 hard to beat. Has 40K on a new 454/th400 combo. Actually was suprised to find these pics in the old crew cab thread from 2013. Needs some love but im excited.

It is a 78 K30 w/ Dana 60, 14 bolt, Th400, Twin stick NP205, 454. Has a 60 gallon in line fuel tank, 8k warn winch, rear air bags, new tires and lift....and the list goes on. Plans are to paint it the original off white color, restore the interior and fix a few rust areas in the floors. Truck past the 100 mile drive home test yesterday, runs and drives great! If i told you what i paid you call me a liar, but all in all, it was a good buy and have no plans of getting rid of it, time to enjoy it.

I used mine on a 12 hour round trip to Memphis last week. While it performed extremely well, stopping at fuel pumps was a frequent occurrence.

I was about to ask why not just convert using our 1 ton 4wd crew cab conversion kit. Its about as bolt on as it gets.

Same truck from post 239. Work in progress. Coming work includes adding a drivers side fuel tank, add a white stripe (vinyl), paint the frame, tanks deck, budd front axle swap. Probably build a lower deck for it.. Steps..

I live in Cincy, only had to drive about 45 minutes north to Dayton to get it.

I feel like I got lucky with this one. No 454, but the SM465 was still installed. Interior is dirty, but complete. Rockers, cab corners and the driver side floor plan are rusted pretty heavily. Got it for $900 with a clean Ohio title. Wiring is all intact, glass is all good, no major body damage other than rust.

Very happy to have been able to bring it home and save it from a potential scrap yard.

Awesome!
Everything around here was about rusted to pieces when I was looking. Ended up going to Colorado for mine.

Long shot here from 2014.... but i just got a cab and chassis 2wd truck. Looking at yours, are you still running the dually axle with only one wheel on that pic? Im a bit puzzled by the rear as i want to put a bed on it and wanting to make it a single wheel pick up and dont know where to start. Im into Drag racing and Chevy Muscle cars usually but aleays wanted a crew cab. Im debating a lowered Dually or single wheel lifted set up with it....

Any help??

Thanks!!

Lead.

Sorry if this is obvious to most... newbie in Dually world (just gotmine a week ago).

Is this a dually rear with single wheel? I have a cab/ chassis crew cab and the weird widthhousing is throwing me off... id like to run either a full width dually or single wheel. Your sw is what got my attention, how would i go about it if it is what im seeing?

Thanks!!
