My 68 k20 daily driver project
I found a 1968 K20 at a used car lot in September 2013 and had to have it I have had to do a lot to keep it on the road I am currently waiting on a used tranny and transfercase to come in had to put a heater core and hook up a switch to the fan. Changed out the sending unit and gas gauge it still doesn't work. As soon as I can figure out how to add some pics I will.

Re: My 68 k20 daily driver project
As you can see I figured out how to add a photo. And if anyone has any parts just lieing around I would be glad to buy them if I need them. Thanks

Don't get me wrong I am an avid classic lover I restored a 1960 corvair as my very first restore I had a blast so when I saw this truck had to have it also.

Re: My 68 k20 daily driver project
Looks like a nice body! Should be a pretty straightforward repair/restore. Pretty rare truck you have there as well. They only made a couple thousand or so K20's in '68

It's a longbed fleetside if that's what you mean...

Re: My 68 k20 daily driver project
Great looking truck, looks to be a great start. Have a spray liner in the bed?
Regarding your questions, check out the search function at the top of the screen. Also, you may get better results posting your questions on the "posts" section of the 67/72s. I would say the "build" threads are good for updating our forum on progress and posting questions that aren't necessarily time sensitive, but inquisitive in nature. Regarding wiring diagrams, check out this "bookmark worthy" post: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=558016
