86 shortbed k10, scottsdale.

heres my 86 chevy k10 scottsdale 1/2 ton pick up. i bought this truck for 650 off a guy that used it as his work/farm truck. the whole truck has about 260k miles. the 305 was getting tired so i replaced it with a gm goodwrench 350 that had only 45k after being rebuilt. the truck has the 3 speed with granny gear transmission..right now im just working on getting road ready(brakes,exhaust,tires etc.). i keep changing my mind from lifting it with big tires or just getting a nice set of 32s for it and restoring it. im only 16 so im on a tight budget and restoring it will take quite a while but it would be worth it.

heres pictures.

Re: 86 shortbed k10, scottsdale.

nice starter truck. I'd go with a 4" lift and probably 33's or 35's. they look great that way. either way have fun with it.

thanks,im most likely gonna go with a 4 inch lift and 33s or 35s,i dont want to get any tire bigger then 35's because i want this to be my daily driver since i wouldnt be driving far to a job or anything.
