Another K/20 body swap! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Joesjunk** · 11-02-2008, 08:46 PM

I have had both of these trucks for sale and no buyers, so I decided to build one out of the two. The 4x4 is a 1972 and the Dark Gold body im using is a 1970. The green and white cab was really rusty. The "new' body is actually in pretty good shape, but the faded color does not help with its looks too much!! Its got a 454, 4-speed, 4:10 posi-track, ps pb ac. I will be selling this when its all done. Should be running tomorrow. Ill get some better pic in the day time.

griesel72 · 11-02-2008, 09:04 PM

i was wondering when i saw you selling all of the good body parts off of that 4X4. Can't wait to see the pictures of it in the daylight.

David

BLAZERMAN · 11-03-2008, 08:36 PM

Looks good Joe..cant wait to see better pics.

**Joesjunk** · 11-03-2008, 08:56 PM

Thanks guys!! I didnt really want to do this one, but it is always fun!!! I got it 99% done today. Didnt get any pics though. Ill get some tomorrow.

Rob, Are you bidding on that green truck by you??? I saw you asked if you could look at it and they said no. People amaze me sometimes!!!

No not going to bid on that one...didnt like his attitude, I was polite in the way that I asked but he sounds like a real Jerk!!

I had my eye on another one that would have been nice for a body swap but couldnt come to a deal on it..still would like to find something for a winter project to use that chassis on you have.

chipflyer · 11-03-2008, 11:13 PM

As always nice work Joe, what do you use to lift cabs and beds?

Jeff

jeffspower · 11-03-2008, 11:29 PM

Joe, where do you find the ambition? seems like you get more done in a week than I do in a year!

Randy, did you ever hear anything more on the Blazer?

Rob, that guy must be loaded- he doesn't seem to care what it goes for. Did you or anyone check on that truck we heard about at the cave meet?

griesel72 · 11-03-2008, 09:02 PM

yeah, i saw that truck, and couldn't believe that he wouldn't show it locally, even as he tells us that is has "unknown" motor trouble that you would think would warrant a inspection. Still waiting for those pictures, i got one more garage stall open since i sold one of my cheyenne's

**Joesjunk** · 11-03-2008, 09:05 PM

David, Are you really interested in this one???

teeitup · 11-03-2008, 10:16 PM

Looks good Joe!!!!!!!!! I was wondering the same thing as David when I seen you selling the bed and doors. That brown out to wax out and look NICE!! I seen that green one on ebay to and seen what he said to Rob, wow some people are crazy and lazy, he'll probably lose money by not letting anyone look at it.

tcb-1 · 11-03-2008, 10:28 PM

I'm with everyone else. I saw the ochre bed on CL and was wondering what was up your sleeve.

guess I know now!!
