2 trucks, have to pick 1...

I know this gets asked frequently, but I'm torn between 2 trucks and looking for opinions.

For background: I own an 87 SWB 2wd with 305, 700r4, 2.73 rear, and typical Northeastern rust. It's my daily driver. I'm looking for another daily driver as I contemplate a move down south. I require no rust, 4wd, and as close to stock as possible. I've found 2 I like very much...

1: Truck 1 is an 86 SWB K10 with 305, 700r4, 3.08 rear, low miles, manual windows and doors, mostly stock with the exception of some chrome bits added by the PO. I'm hoping they'll come off easily. It has a spotlight mounted on the drivers side (like the ones cop cars have), was that an option?

2: Truck 2 is an 82 SWB K10 with 350 crate motor under 5k miles ago, TH350, Standard rear end (I don't know what that means) Power everything. All stock with a quality respray at some point. $1000 lower asking price than truck 1.

Both trucks are super clean, no rust. I prefer the color on Truck 2... but I've never owned the TH350 and I'm concerned about it being a daily driver and eating my wallet. If they had the same tranny, I would go with truck 2... and it's cheaper.

Thoughts?
Thanks
