Another Dakota dirty beat up 71 K20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Vintage Windmills · 09-15-2016, 10:48 PM

Found the fraternal twin to my 71 ochre K20 (at least in as found condition) and hauled it home on monday.

The new twin and the old twin are shown below. They even have same exact configuration of options except the green one has a no spin. I need a pic of the pass side of the green one, its smashed in also! Its uncanny how they are the same truck almost. Nice frames and clean titles on both.

**special-K** · 09-16-2016, 09:58 AM

Hot digitty! You got winch with this one, too.

Vintage Windmills · 09-16-2016, 01:02 PM

The winch is just the one mounted on the trailer, I had to jump across the solenoid terminals, I better fix it before i find the next truck

dmartin1 · 09-16-2016, 04:10 PM

Dam, what i would do to have the k20.
My poor k10 rear frame is so tweaked in the rear i have to level it with a cement bag on the driver side.
Wish i had some $$.

nice finds!

**Joesjunk** · 09-16-2016, 04:55 PM

Another good find. I really like the factory paint stripe on these

**too much stuff** · 09-16-2016, 09:03 PM

Nice score jud! Save some for the rest of us to find too....

**70cst** · 09-16-2016, 10:14 PM

Its always good to score with these trucks

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-16-2016, 10:43 PM

Nice score Jud! Are you going to fix this one too, or part it?

Yep, me too. Maybe someday this one will look as nice as your green/white K20!

Thanks Ryan! Will probably fix it, since it meets the criteria of good chassis, clean title, K20

Vintage Windmills · 09-23-2016, 11:36 PM

More pics, this is actually a bit better optioned than I remembered. Just looked at SPID again. Was a nicely optioned no frills truck in its day.

Vintage Windmills · 09-23-2016, 11:41 PM

Still has the spiral shocks in rear. Hopefully thats good indication the no spin is still in there.

Vintage Windmills · 09-26-2016, 10:04 AM

Here's the ochre truck these days

cleszkie · 09-26-2016, 02:47 PM

The engine in that green one looks "tired"

Sorry, couldn't resist.

**gmc 2500 4x4** · 10-09-2016, 08:45 PM

are you parting this? i would get in line on what i have circled plus clutch fork and lower rod. hell peddles too!

cypressbog · 10-09-2016, 09:08 PM

I think Jud is going to keep this sweetheart of a project.

**gmc 2500 4x4** · 10-10-2016, 05:25 AM

i dont blame him!

Vintage Windmills · 10-13-2016, 09:40 PM

yes, going to keep it all together. I guess I am a sucker for punishment, I kind of like these more challenging projects.
