Hi from NE Ohio
Hey there. I'm restarting on a 69 CST K20 fleetside that I left off on 7 years ago when I lost a space to work on it. It's been a California truck most of it's life, as a firestation utility truck. 4 speed, 350, ac, power steering/brakes, cst...etc. In 72 they had the local dealer where it was purchased install saddle tanks and an electric over hydraulic dump system. It will dump around 2500 to 3000 lbs. I replaced inner/outer rockers, kick panel patches, roof patches above a pillar, inside roof panel from a pillar to a pillar, all drip railing, cab corners, and other ticky tack body stuff. Then painted it. Other than that rain damage, the rest of the truck mechanically looks minty southwestern, and really nice. I bought it when I was 21 with intention of using it as my light duty work truck, and because it's just a super cool truck. I'm putting it back together with new mechanical parts where it needs it, replacing a few aesthetic things, but over all I still want the vintage feeling and look.
