Gerry's 1971 K10 barn build

Since Covid kept me at home I decided to find a truck to restore and pass the time, after a long search I found this 1971 K10, it was rough but it was calling my name, I bought it a year ago.

Re: Gerry's 1971 K10 barn build

I wish the pictures were smaller, I'm still trying to figure that out

Since the box was gone, I decides to shorten the frame, this truck still had the original shocks, points ignition, pretty much all original




Original 307 2 barrel

Nice find. Are (were) the tow hooks painted white?

Thank you Sir, when I got the truck, the hooks were the same crappy silver color like on the bumper ........
