My new 86 K10 daily driver

Hey guys. I wanted to post over here to introduce myself (I'm and over in the 47-59 section mostly). I will probably be asking lots of questions in the future.

Long story short, I had a 2014 crew cab Silverado with stupid high payments that I got tired of paying. That truck is gone now. I just wanted a good strong truck to do truck stuff. Enter my new K10.

I paid $1300 (plus a tonneau cover off the 2014) for this truck. 187,000 miles but runs absolutely perfect. Its a 1/2 ton 4x4 with a 305 auto. Its a waldoch trim truck. I know Waldoch is common here in MN but is it elsewhere too? Its a coach company that adds upgrades and fancy paint to new vehicles and sells them as special cars, mostly you see vans from them.

The truck has AC which doesn't work, power windows that work very slow, and power locks that lock but don't unlock... You know the good old used truck problems I'll be slowly fixing. But hey, it runs perfect. The truck came with load leveling air bags and a winch installed behind the front license place.

Tell me what you guys think. I know its got rust but its not a show truck or a restoration candidate, its a $1300 beater. I do love the dark brown paint with graphics, they give the truck some character. I like the brown interior too. thankfully the dash pad is in mint condition. I see LMC had tan ones but I haven't found any one with these cool dark brown ones in the aftermarket. Interior is one thing I plan to fix up some what since that's where I'll be.
