Re: 73-87 4x4s

My '73 K20, it' far from perfect but for the price in my area (even rusty ones are expensive) it'll be a good start.

Re: 73-87 4x4s

Here is mine I just bought. 86 GMC Sierra Classic K1500. I had the same truck in high school and was very happy to find another one.

Re: 73-87 4x4s

thirdstreettito, is the 4x4 dually a four speed or a/t? I'm a four speed man but that truck is awesome!


Also, like the lettered cowl induction hood!

Re: 73-87 4x4s

Couple pics of my 87 that I bought a little over a month ago, I want to put 35s on it but I'm not sure if they'll fit or not with only 4" of lift.. Something to look into once summer rolls around & the salt is off the roads. Bottom pic is from a year or so back, kinda bad quality.

Re: 73-87 4x4s

Here is my 1984 GMC Sierra 4x4. The first pic is of the motor out to fix the spun bearing the PO did. The rest are how it now sits. Still a work in progress. Ive also attached a video of when I got the motor and tranny back in after rebuilding. Sorry about the camera quality, my cell phone video sucks.

I dont know if your talking about mine or the ones before, haha, but the specs on my truck:

350 out of a caprice, 700r4 to replace worn out 350 tranny, 4 inch lift, 33s on west coast chopper 20 inch wheels. Still have a good size list of things to to do it before its my DD. I need to change out stock 3.08 to 4.10 or 4.56, not sure which ones yet. Just ordered a new carpet kit, definately needs a new exhaust system, put A/C pump and lines back in for the hot summers here in california, and find a tach to put in place of the fuel guage. And of course an alarm system so I dont do all of this work for someone else to steal and enjoy. Its nice to see these 4x4 square bodies, I rarely see any where Im at.

Yes i was referring to your truck. What kind of shape was it in when you first got it? Sounds like you done quite a bit to it. I don't see too many around where i live, but they are still cheap to buy and fix.

Re: 73-87 4x4s

It was in pretty good shape when I got it. I bought it from my old college roomate, and him and his dad were restoring it in the late 1990s when his dad suddenly passed away. They had swapped the caprice engine in, changed to a 350 tranny from the stock 700r4 that was toasted, done all of the paint and body work, and added all the chrome and new emblems. It had a broken flexplate and been parked until we fixed that and got it running for a little while, until one day he hopped in after changing the oil, didnt let it warm up, and decided to go hot rod it down his street. Came back with a bad knock, and I knew he spun a bearing, so he parked it in 2004 in his garage, and there it stayed until I bought it and shipped it to california. The paint is in excellent shape considering it was done around 1994-1995, being that its been garaged until now. I have done a lot to it mechanically, putting the 700 back in and fixing the engine. It makes it much easier having my dads race shop to tear it all apart. You can see a few of his cars in the back ground of the first picture.
