1985 to 2020.
Somethings just never change. Speedo may have rolled over a couple of times, but it still looks about the same.

My K20 when I bought it in 1991, after driving it daily for 10 years and then after restoration.

Bought this truck last August. Here are the main things I've done to it:
-Replaced butchered metal dash -Modified wiring harness for full gauge cluster -Installed tach kit -Reupholstered seat, new carpet, shoulder belts -Power brake booster -Front disc conversion kit -Rebuilt front and rear suspension, new body mounts -Vortec heads & new camshaft -Replaced grille, driver side front fender, door and bed fender (had them painted by a local body shop) -Rebuilt vent windows, replaced window & door seals -New bed wood -Rebuilt and installed a 700R4 transmission - just drove it for the first time today - need to finish TCC lockup wiring It's still not "done", but it is getting close. Next will be a new exhaust system, limited slip diff and Vintage Air. |

Bought the truck in 2010 and immediately tore it all apart and down to the frame. Not one original rivet left.....

Re: Show them trucks before and after!
68 Stepside right after being picked up. Doesn't look too bad in first photo, but had a lot of rust issues (cab corners, etc.) A lot of previous owner cobbled together parts and "fixes". If I only knew then, what I know now...
2nd photo. Several years (and many dollars) later, as a Conservation Forestry truck. A total rebuild from the frame up. 90% of the work done myself - but outsourced the paint! |
