Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

Eq = equipment. Yes I’ll need to get the skid steer out if we get another dump. Hopefully it’s almost over.

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

The bed turned out waaaaay too nice and now the front half of the truck looks pretty dingy.

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

Looks good. Careful about getting it too pretty. Makes it hard to want to plow with it...

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

I think it looks great. All business. A little touch-up paint and some quality time with some cleaner wax and I'll bet it would look good all the way around.

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

The plow truck worked great all summer. It got a lot of action as we left the camper in the v3500 all summer so this was the only functioning pickup at the house.

Now the snow is coming back, so studs are back on. I got a new set of LED headlights and am finally installing my retrosound stereo.

This load of wood was just going next door. Tires were set for comfort and not work!

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

Looks like a good workout for the old six.

Hard to believe it’s time for snow again. We just got 6”.

Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

Hard to believe it's time to get plowing again...

I did get a set of LED sealed beam replacement headlights installed, and the retro sound stereo with a couple pair of cheap MTX speakers. The bulbs throw more light than my LED bar, and stereo is underwhelming, but now gets reception and can connect to my phone. Tunes and a cup holder?!? I may never come home.

Trucks are looking great! Always like people that use them as they were made to do.

Thanks MattMan. Sorry to see your shortbed take off but on to the next project.

That escalated quickly.
