Im Going to be picking up a new truck this weekend and was wondering what ya'll think its an '86 Silverado with a 305 and I think it has a 700R4, it needs the pass. front fender and ball joints but thats about it. These are the only pics i have right now.

**N2TRUX** · 03-24-2009, 10:48 PM

I think you couldn't buy the tires for that. What a sweet buy.

72-blazer · 03-25-2009, 09:14 AM

Ok... I think there should be pics now

tvblazer78 · 03-25-2009, 09:22 AM

Ya I think you did good. I been looking for one like that but SB and I can not buy a POS for $600.. So you did very good..

**old Rusty C10** · 03-25-2009, 09:32 AM

last truck i bought for that had a blown motor in it and i had to replace it.. it wasnt going to be anything more than a parts truck then i decided to ressurrect it and ran it for years then sold it for $800

kelsfine69 · 03-25-2009, 10:04 AM

Nice work! I will be watching to see your progress on this awesome find.

72-blazer · 03-25-2009, 09:45 PM

Well I have some plans, But its going to be a long term project because its my first real truck, I have an '87 K20 but I got it for free and its not roadworthy so I dont really call it mine, but anyway the plans include rust/dent reapair but theres not much of that and then maybe a 2" 2" drop and a set of 17x8 Coy C-57 series and re-paint it orange and white two tone and hope it ends up something like this green one. (if the pics work)
