Finally found my '70
Just picked up this '70 K20 numbers-matching pickup from a guy in Alabama. Had a most difficult time locating an original C/K20 4x4 that wasn't a complete basket case.
Originally a California truck. Zero rust or upgrades. |

Welcome to the forum!
That's sweet. Will you drive it on a dirt road?

Re: Finally found my '70
How did you go about buying it from out of state? Did you have someone inspect it for you or just buy it "on faith"

Re: Finally found my '70
Wow, that is a nice one for sure! The 1970 K20's are my favorite.

Re: Finally found my '70
Gang -
Looking for some stock wheels and hubcaps for this '70 K20 4x4. Anybody have some laying around? Or can you tell me the specifics on which wheels I need so that I can start hunting around the local tire dealers? The white steel wheels that are on it now don't have the tabs that the hubcaps clip onto. Thanks! Kyle |

Re: Finally found my '70
I used the website www.uship.com to find a hauler that could bring it to me. He picked it up on a Saturday morning, and it was at my house on Monday evening. 2650 miles for $1900.
I remembered the website from the TV show 'shipping wars'. It is very well set up and easy to use. I recommend it to anyone needing to move a rig. |

Re: Finally found my '70
Duramax, nice truck for sure!
You're going to look for the 69-72 chrome hubcap with the blue bowtie for the correct caps on this truck. 67-68 had the clip style caps for 3/4 ton. |
