Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
Thanks for bringing this one back. I enjoyed going back through it some seeing the trucks and member names
Might as well add how the K2500 looks today, 10 years later

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I've had this GMC for about 10 years, was a driver when I bought it. Cleaned up engine compartment, new interior and just painted it. Still looking for upper trim on bed.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I'd guess an antenna or mirror mount. I've seen several trucks with holes in the similar spot.
Joe, you're going to have to change your name. No junk I see there. ![]()

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
It’s a bracket for an overhead camper strut. It had a camper put on it when it was about 6 months old.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
Both are super fine, as to be expected from you. I especially like the '71 for grabbing the historic essence of a fine from the start 4wd camper hauler, 9.00-16 bias-ply extra tractions, split rims, camper brackets, auxiliary tank doors, and all. That's how it was and just as great today!

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
I could never believe those mounts were only installed with sheet metal screws. A whole lot of them, but never liked the idea. I like seeing them on the truck, though. It's keeping it original (as it was outfitted back then), including the paint. It's nice finding a truck someone never personalized for their uses, but that was fairly rare. Camper haulers are a great segment for survivors, that's for sure.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
They are looking great Jeff! I’ll have to send dad some pics of them. He was asking if I had talked to you lately the other day. I’m thinking about heading home in May, I’ll let you know if I do.

Re: The Big Boys:Let's See Those K/20s & K2500s
Here's a truck I picked up a while back. 1972 Sierra Grande Longhorn converted to a K in the 90s. It was very hard for me to pass it up after a friend sent me the FB FS post.
