Mines an original paint truck, but I went about it differently than most. When I bought it, the hood and cowl had been primered, and it had a different tailgate. I was able to round up original paint pieces and get it all original ochre again.

I like how you think Steve - I'm doing the same thing, depleting the parts boards of medium olive gems and some scraps here and there....

Can a mostly original K5 be allowed? Here's mine. A touchup on the rear quarters (refrig magnet still sticks) and replaced rockers and lower front quarters. Otherwise original paint.

Original paint with a coat of mud

TexC-10 · 01-25-2013, 08:21 PM

I'm pretty proud of this one. My cousin bought it brand new in 71 so his daughter would have a cold air conditioner. He took great care of it and I was lucky to purchase it after he passed away. Name: Glenns truck.jpg

Good looking Ol truck. Try some CLR on that rust under the side marker light and it'll come right off there..
