nice interior!

**Willowrun** · 04-30-2016, 08:33 AM

Picked this up over the winter and have been getting it into shape since then. '84 GMC K1500 that came from Idaho. The grill was bad when I bought it so I put a Chevy grill and tailgate band on it until I can find a nice GMC grill. I also changed out the GMC cab trim for some camper specials I had just to be different I guess. Put rallies on it, got rid of step bumper, fixed a lot of mechanical issues also. I need to tackle the interior next.

One more.

Nice clean 84.

Do I win the award for the worst truck here?

This is my 77(?) Stepside Cheyenne 2WD. One of the neighbors gave it to me when I was about 12 years old (I'm 25 now). I started fixing it up back then, but my dad talked me into doing a 4x4 swap which I didn't really want. I unbolted the 2WD crossmember and staged the front axle and that was as far as I got. Over 300 projects and a house later, I finally have time and the space to bring it home and fix it back up the way I want it. It will be going back to 2WD (luckily I saved everything I took off!), not sure on the engine or tranny yet, but I did build a custom tilt steering column that fits a 700R4.

Shield your eyes!

Poor I'm not sure if I am a 4wd or 2wd truck, think your on the right track to build it as you want, back to a 2wd, anything can be fixed and built right, lots of parts available, cool that it's a stepside. Get at it and keep us posted.

Dig this, Chuck. Should be a super sweet ride with a few nice little touches.

Sorry to keep posting pics, but I really like how my drop turned out...

My 86 Silverado. Before & after the drop, and after this weekend. I powder coated wheels and got rid of the skinny whitewalls.
