Re: Newbie here... which to buy?

Also a big Welcome to the board here. Guess I'm a bit one sided on this but I'd go for the K10 Chevy. But then, since I have a '71 K10 my opinion is a bit predjudiced. I don't mind the old F***ds that much, never had one but from the two listings I think the '71 K10 would do you better. From the pics it's in much better shape than my truck was when I bought it. '71 was first year disc brakes were standard on all Chevy pick ups. Interior seems pretty decent, not a big fan of the floor shift shown in the 4x4 but that's personal preference. Have you made an actual visit to one or the other? Sometimes pics look better than the real deal in person.
