Killed the K20, maimed the Super in 1 day!!!

[JQ-72]

AHHH!! What a day. A friend of mine told me he found a 72 Deluxe in a junkyard with a 3.08 posi and more parts. It's time for a yard run anyway, so I left out this morning after work. I drove the K20 with trailer in case I might buy the whole truck. I got 30 miles from home and she started chattering and missing badly. I checked the oil pressure gauge and nothing! I coasted into a gas station, popped the hood and smoke went everywhere. It smelled like a house fire or something, not like antifreeze. I checked the oil and it was full?? I figured the oil pump went out, so I called my lovely wife to come get me. I returned with my SWB Super and planned on swapping the trailer and towing the K20 home. But first, I had to go to the j-yard to check out the deals. I found the truck, but someone had swapped out the rear to a one-wheeler. Oh well, I found a few other good parts. As I was driving out of the yard I spotted a 66 truck with power brakes (pretty rare). I pulled the Super between a few cars and walked down to the 66 and yanked the booster out. I went back to my truck to find it GONE!!! My heart sank - factory swb Super with BB and almost every available option and I imagined some crack head driving it away!!! I asked a forklift driver if he saw it and he said he saw someone driving it out of the yard. I sprinted to the front and found it in the parking lot. I was relieved UNTIL I saw my perfect tailgate caved in!!! Aparently, one of the lift drivers backed into it and then drove it out of the way. No one would admit to it and plus they have the "not responsible for damage..." sign so there is nothing I could do anyway. I then had to go and swap the trailer around and load up the K20. The 1/2 ton pulled it OK, but with a bumper mounted ball and no trailer brake hook up, I was a little nervous!! It turns out the lower radiator hose busted and badly overheated it. I got it running, but it blew a head gasket. I've now been up 27 hours. I'm going to bed and think of a happy place. I've had enough of this day!!!!!!!!!
