as asked...A pic of my K-10 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ChevyDude · 04-20-2005, 12:18 PM

You guys asked so here she is in a not so happy cosmetic state...but extremeley mechanically sound. I have been putting all my available cash into my C-10 resto and the poor lil' K-10 just hasn't been recieving any cash or attention...other than the brand new Eaton 3.73 Posi rear end rebuild last month. So I have a brand new complete short wide wood floor bed for my K-10 that is still in boxes and awaiting my decision whether to keep this K-10 and re-build her or to sell her as she is, or to do all the body work and prime and then sell...or to just keep her and do a frame off. The 383 under the hood is perfect, the AC is all there and works nicely, the rearend has just been rebuilt, the transfer case and 4x4 gear work perfect. She has a new tach/vac dash, truck tilt column, 99' electric truck 60/40 seat, blazer relocated tank, new rockers and corners...and the best part.....STARTS EVERYDAY. This is my daily driver and I have lots to think about what I want to do and whether to keep her or sell her??? What do you think she is worth?
Not sure what I'm going to do with this lil' K-10???

Brainchild · 04-20-2005, 01:37 PM

With all the work already been done,I'd hang on to it.Looks good IMO.

71swb4x4 · 04-20-2005, 01:52 PM

Don't sell it!

barn9 · 04-20-2005, 02:16 PM

Keep it, fix it up, and be proud of it! They don't make 'em anymore ya know, LOL!

ChevyDude · 04-20-2005, 02:52 PM

Ya I know...I"ll do the best to keep it!

Russell · 04-20-2005, 02:53 PM

Got any interior/motor shots?

ChevyDude · 04-20-2005, 04:18 PM

Have to take pics of interior and motor tomorrow, no time left today...gots ta go to work!

als70chevy4x4 · 04-21-2005, 04:36 PM

One thing I have noticed on this board is a reluctance to giving an opinion on pricing a truck.I have asked before and no one would give me an answer,maybe no one wanted to hurt my feelings lol.I'll give it a shot,as it sits I'm thinking 6000$ ballpark if it's as nice as it sounds in the interior.My plan would be to put4-5000$ into paint and whatever else it needed.With the Cheyenne package,ac.tilt,vac etc. that thing is worth the better part of 15000$ around this neck of the woods.Of course you do that and you would never sell it!(I know I coudn't)It might be worth it depending on what you have into it already.Hope this helps

Now I feel bad because I took the bed off of that truck for my truck. Alex that is a nice K10 and I would hang on to it if I were you. It will be sweet with the new wood bed.

ChevyDude · 04-22-2005, 01:32 PM

I know...hey don't feel bad...no way dude! The new wood floor bed will be awesome I know that...I'm just waiting on my slow a$$ painter. I'm Gonna find some way to keep her...just thinking I need a newer daily driver truck...that's all. It's a stupid money issue.

67ChevyRedneck · 04-22-2005, 01:48 PM

Man, what a piece, I'll give ya $200 for it! J/K bro, you have a lot of money and work into her already. The entire box is brand new and about to be painted? Shoot, there ain't hardly nothin left. Finish her, you'll regret it otherwise

ChevyDude · 04-22-2005, 02:02 PM

Ya the new SWB wood floor box is brand spanking new from GMC Paul's and it wasn't cheap...so Yes I will get it painted and put the box on it...and keep it. I do need a newr model daily though...so I'll just work my a$$ off and come up with the cash for a new 02' or 03' daily truck.

Jason915 · 04-22-2005, 04:24 PM

Alex just pick up a beater 90's S-10 for a daily driver, then work your butt off for money for your projects. Having a nice daily driver is overrated what's important is what you have in your collection, ya know what I mean?

ChevyDude · 04-22-2005, 04:42 PM

You just may be right Jason. Thanks for the positive feedback, it's nice to know the guys on th board care!
