Here is my K20 before and after. The after pic doesnt show that it now has argent silver mirror arms and the same color on the rear step bumper. The waves in the paint arent waves, its the reflection of the mountains.

The K20 isn't actually going to be my truck for much longer. Im trading it to a friend for his ride. We just haven't had the chance to make the deal yet...conflicting schedules.

sbc10guy · 07-18-2012, 12:07 AM

Wow you guys do some real good work. The only real before and after pic i have kind of goes backwards lol. Maybe someday il have some progress. Before and after.

Holy jeez man, the bed looks pretty bad as well. Might have to invest in another truck. Thats what happened to me. Bought one from a buddy that was sight unseen all we wanted was the cab, got it home, stripped, it down and ended up keeping nothing but the door hinges, and i suicided the doors On mine so i got nothing from it lol A waste of $850 and hours of work.

When I bought it and brought it home...it was complete and driveable, which I did for 7 years. Now, it is completely apart and driving me to the point of parting it out....no, don't ask on this thread.

FoxHound · 07-18-2012, 02:27 AM

My dad bought me this blazer when i was a sophomore in high school as a father/son project. 4 years in the making and still not finished but just adding fun stuff now.

**special-K** · 07-18-2012, 06:22 AM

I'm assuming this thread is for pictures of trucks that got improved/restored. I have owned some trucks and used them long enough for the after to look worse than the before

.

68Stepbed · 07-18-2012, 07:41 AM

Before: Just after I first bought it.

Before: Just before tear down for paint and rebuild.

After: When new paint and all was done

After: How she's looking now.
