Back for the 3rd time

Here it is. I’m thinking fresh flat bed, new wheels/tires and freshens up the plow and ridiculous brush guard and she’ll be a looker in no time.
After 2 successful ownerships of a 71 C10 SWB (two different trucks. Couple of my buddies bought them from me and now they take them to car shows around here) I decided to jump back into the water and bought a 72 K20 with a flatbed and a plow. Military 6.2L diesel swap, 1 ton front axle, 4 speed….its a frickin’ tank and I love it.
My C10s were summer rigs and that’s tricky in Alaska. I’ve got driveways to plow and there’s no way I was jumping into a $60k+ truck with a $10k+ plow setup. Not when I can move snow with a relic!
I’ll keep pictures of the progress with the build. Finding the right wheels/tires is first but here are slim pickins in Alaska.

I like your thinking. That's a good looking work truck!
