Picked up a 83 k20 this week.

I bought this plow truck this week to add to my fleet. Its a 1983 K20 has a 350 auto, 4:56 gears, 4in lift. Hope to get a chance this weekend to look it over a little better.

Thanks it'll fit in well with my others, It's not quite as nice as the photo leads you to beleive box has little holes around wheel wells and front clip is showing signs. Still a fairly solid truck for around here tho, plus it came with a plow which was a big plus.

Got a chance to look it over. Fixed door pins and bushings. It started snowing here so I thought it would be good chance to test 4wd and sure enough I cant get front end to lock in. Sounds like its trying I can hear it clunk but wheels wont spin.
