You're going to think I'm crazy!!!!

I've had my 84 GMC K20 for awhile now and it's been a blast, but it's time to part ways. I've done everything I wanted to do to it. And now that it's done, I realize that I really don't want a lifted truck. Instead I'd rather have a stock truck or at least closer to stock then I have now. So, I've sold it, well traded it actually. I traded a gentleman for his stock 1984 GMC K10 plus cash, for my truck.
So I went from this:


To this:





I know what your thinking "Man thats a step backwards", but for what I want in a truck it's perfect. My plan is to paint it the colour of the box and change the interior to tan.
It's got a rebuilt 305, 700r4, and np208 in it. With the stock suspension and tire size I'm already doing better gas wise, but with the 700r4, theres the added bonus of the 4 speeds. I'm building this truck to be a reliable, efficient and capable truck to be used for everything I do. The K20 was a great truck but not very efficient, or usable really (hard to get stuff in and out of the bed).
So this truck will get good on and off road tires, limited slip up front, and some sort of locker out back. It only has a single tank, may put on a second or may use that location for an air tank.

So what do you guys think, I know nuts right
