Nice truck Bill!

Here's how my 72 K30 is setting now.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

:jdp: Wow!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Hell yeah!! Great looking. Havent seen many Black K trucks lately.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Ryan, that truck is killer!!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Thanks for the compliments guys. Pete - I can get a SPID pic. Anything in particular you'd like to know about the truck?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Nothing in particular Bill - it's an outstanding truck in a seldom seen color combo and well optioned. Any chance your family has vintage pics of the truck? When I bought my K1500 the widow of the original owner was kind enough to search for old pictures of the truck but was unsuccessful - would have been to neat to see.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here you go Pete. The SPID, and also a pic of the order form from back in 1968 when the truck ordered and purchased. No vintage pics or anything, but the truck really doesn't look any different now than it did back in the day, with the exception of the hubcaps. I bought those and had the wheels painted.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Bill, that's priceless being your grandfathers and all. Great truck with some great documentation. Bet you wish you had that 50 GMC dump he traded too! Not everybody gets the chance at such a great truck, let alone the history with it. CONGRATS!!!!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Awesome! Very special truck. Thanks Bill.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

My 72' just put new wheels and tires on it. And a pic of the wrecked one I saved from the clutches of doom.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

The 72 looks great and good save, those clutchs of doom are rough.:metal:

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Nice looking Truck!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

What kind of wheels did you get?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

I had some 15x10 steel wheels on it. Was tired of the noise of the off road tires and they were worn out and I don't take it off road much. So I went with 16x8 aluminum wheels and michelin tires. Much better ride! The beat up truck is going to get a new cab and flatbed and that will be my beater/winter driver/woods truck.

Nice trucks!

72 K10 Cheyenne survivor w cab marker lights I bumped into...

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Another nice one ! Literally dont "bump" into them around here anymore seems like. Least not decent. Theres a few though. Mostly in the weeds.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

That is sweet! I didn't realize those hub caps could be had on a 4x4.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4

Beautiful truck MrChevrolet!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Bill, i just realized that was your truck back on post #1221 !
Good work!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Here's a 1970 K10 SWB still owned by friend of mine. We ran around in this pickup during high school way back when. Resto pending.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Pete,

Glad he held on to it over the years. Those are cool stories to hear. It looks pretty solid other than the rockers.

My pickup deemed ol' blue next to her younger sister ol' betsy 99 Sierra. Blue's a 1972 GMC Sierra but has the sierra grande equipment on the options sticker... If anyone could tell me why it wasnt badged a sierra grande thatd be awesome, i can only assume its because it doesnt have all the trim? Anyway im thinking of lifting her a bit, 4 or 6in? Im open to suggestions and what tire size?

I may have posted before, but just recently got the blazer back on the road. It is my daily driver now!

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

My 79 4WD I built in 86. Kept it until 1995. 4 inch susp lift 3 inch body lift
38.5" Monster Mudders. 383 stroker motor auto trans. The 68 GMC I just picked up last weekend. Plan on a 6 inch lift and 38's on it as well. It has a 350 4spd. Or maybe put that body on a 2001 frame? Anyone here ever done that conversion? Maybe a late 80's chassis?

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Nice score on the 68. 6" lift wont work very well on the older truck you will need about 8" to keep the 38 from rubbing. I have 71 with 6" lift and 36" and adding 1" body lift to fit 37". I had a 84 I bough new for 24 years ran 6" lift 2" body and 38's. I miss that truck.

Heres my truck 1972 chevy k20 has 4 inch lift with 35s in the next few weeks going to put a 8 inch lift on with 37 14.50 r16 maxxis creepy crawlers. Also going to have cross over steering.

Hey fellas, i know this isnt a help thread but i was hoping to get some help since its a 4x4 one. My '72 3/4 does great in 4 wheel and even does really well in two wheel off road, however i noticed that when i was trying to do some doughnuts in the dirt the truck wouldnt whip around it would just kinda turn... I believe i had the front hubs still locked however it was in 2 wheel drive. Ive also witnessed only one rear tire on that truck spin before when the hubs were locked and id gas it in the dirt but when i unlocked them they both spun again... Just wondering why this happens and if i need the rear end serviced or rebuilt or if its normal. Thanks for any help.

Re: post your 67-72 4x4
 

Interesting about the front hubs not locked but in 4wd, think it is still loading up the transfer case and turning both the front end just not the hubs so maybe effects the rear a bit trying to turn both front and rear, wouldn't hurt to service the rear anyway..
