Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

My '76 C20! I got it as a C10 with no motor or trans (was a 350/350 setup). Swapped in a 454/ 700R and a 14 bolt floater, and switched out all the front end components to 3/4 ton!

Future plans: stocker cab lights, sliding rear window, lock the rear end, build a winch bumper, get it sitting level and then do a body lift.

It'd also be pretty cool to find a cheap K20 donor truck so I could make her 4wd...

Man this truck just looks tough! Little rough around the edges but that just provides it with character!!! Keep those stocker wheels too - they look SWEET on there!!!

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Thanks man! Long story short, those 16.5 white steel wheels started my obsession with these trucks years ago when i saw them on my dad's 'Burb...so they're not going anywhere!!

I like your truck, the wheels and tires just really make it stand out, give it it's own look!

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

I'm not buying the '6k original'. Look at the intake and the bracket just under the upper radiator hose. The intake is all rusty and the bracket and bolt are nice paint. But it is a nice truck.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

That happens to these old cast iron intakes. They cook the paint off of them.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Well it is a nice truck what kills it for me is the white hood and stripes plus the gaudy bumper guard. If that is factory stock, what were they thinking? I noticed the rusty hood latch,spring & bolts across the front it must not have been garaged all the time. I think it's over priced in these lean times, but it is a good survivor...Vernski

No way. More like 106k. Look at all the rock chips in the rear fender before the tire!

I don't know about the grill gaurd but the stripes on the hood are original, had them on my 78 camper special, my 78 had a grile gaurd but a much nicer one than that.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?

Just joined the board, and this is my recent acquisition - a 1981 C10 one owner 83,000 mile truck. Original 305 with auto.















Tires will be replaced very soon - original size tires - 205/75/15's to match the original unused spare in the box.... Probably looking to go with 235/7015's - taller and wider to better fill the wheelwells.

Not sure about putting the topper back on - it's period correct - but I just don't like toppers.
