Re: here is the begining of my 1980 3/4 ton 4x4 daily driver build

Thanks for all the repilies guys I appreciate the intrest you guys have in my work. I will be getting some pictures of my most recent project up soon. I am just starting to redo a project I built in high school sold and the kid totalled it now I have it back. he has already changed the frame and bought new sheet metal it is a lowered 2wd. 1977 chevy swb. it is getting a stout 489 bb I used to have in a lifted K-5 blazer with 3/4 ton running gear and kept breaking parts so took the engine out and now it is going to go in somthing lite. : ) I cant wait. I went ahead and added a couple pics to keep you interested. a picture of the short wide, one of my small blocked s-10 that I built in high school and still have. then my 55 chevy pickup that I will start on in another year or so hope you like them.

Re: here is the begining of my 1980 3/4 ton 4x4 daily driver build

I like it! Looks like it was a fairly clean body to start with! You just don't see many cabs as clean as yours anymore. It turned out really nice. You got any pictures of it with the aluminum wheels that you mentioned having for it yet? I'll be watching for the other builds that you have going, especially the '77 and '55. .....Joe

And some more pics I only have a few things left to finish it up. Needs tinted windows and a color matched bed liner for now.

Thanks guys
The k-20 turned out pretty good I drove it for a couple years then sold it. I am currently daily driving a 1966 gmc 4x4 3/4 ton and a 1978 k10 short bed.
