Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Had it almost 30 years, bought locally, believe me, even back then, the local pickings were slim, very difficult to pick and choose exactly what your looking for. Luckily the original owner ordered it with some desirable options, power brakes, front stabilizer bar and 4.11 ratio. Was an original ex camper hauler like so many were, but the last owner, who got it from the original owner was using as a home improvement tool and dump runner. Tires are bias ply 7.50-16

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
My K20 is far from an original survivor, but it sure is fun.
Someday I plan on ditching the 16x9 wheels and 285/75 tires installed by a PO for some 16x6 plain black steel wheels with 235/85 tires.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
^agreed its not bad looking with the newer style wheels currently on it .I understand wanting to go back to the stock steelie and pizza cutters though since the trucks look so good with them. If you clear 285's and like the current gearing I would maybe go 255\85R16 to keep near same height tire, that or old 7.5\9.00-16's lol. Wheel vintiques now has their 82 SERIES OE 8 LUG line of wheels in 16x6,7,8 & 10 if you cant find good price on originals or just want to order all new matching.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
All these trucks look great!
1/2ton trucks are cool, but the 3/4 ton/heavy duty trucks are my favorites! I might post mine on here but It's not a factory c20.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Often, when someone tries to be creative with the two-tone, it isn't my taste if isn't a factory scheme, but I really like how you did the contrasting colors.
Very nice!.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
My 1965 C20 with 25500 original miles. This truck has sat for quite some time in its life and I’m trying to get as much history as I can on it. It originated in Fremont, CA and has spent time CA, AZ, DE, GA, FL and now TN. Ive google the Flying A Farm in San Leandro, CA hoping I could find something...zero balance. Great truck with 283, Powerglide tranny. Runs/rides/drives great and its a great addition to my other C10 and C30 trucks

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?
Interesting how the 73-87s trucks look more like the 60-66 trucks more so than say the 67-72 trucks did.
