    3/4 ton frame and axles

    frame and axles from 75 chevy k20. body still on frame, but is rotted beyond reasonable restoration. some pieces may be usable, but this probably isn't a restoration candidate. maybe a playtoy, but idk. had planned to use this frame to put a 46 gmc body on, but the better half wants a...

    Dually

    Idk if this is the correct place for this or not, maybe not. Please move if needed. I have searched for an answer while at work for this, but haven't had much luck.

    Longbed with wood flooring

    I recently picked up a 75 k20 that has a wood floored bed. the truck body itself is pretty much beyond repairing. what I wanted to know is if these beds are any more desirable than a normal long bed or not. It needs restored, in pretty rough shape. Just wanted some input from someone who...

    sm465 question

    I searched for this answer, but didn't find it. I may have overlooked it, and if I did, I apologize. Heres the situation: I just bought a 78 C20. No engine, but has good sheetmetal. I plan to use that to restore my 74 K25. The C20 has a sm465 in it. By a happy coincidence, I also picked up...

    74 Longbed

    So, the more I look at the bed on my 74, the more certain I am that I need to replace it. With that being said, I am looking for a nice 8' longbed for a 74 GMC. I know all years from 73-87 will fit, so I guess if anyone has a nice one in that range, give me a holler. Willing to travel to pick...

    Oh No...

    Not another "Whats it worth" thread. Unfortunately, yea. I have a friend who has a 85 Chevy SWB. He is wanting to sell it, and it unsure what to ask. He has been doing work on it, and has either run out or time, money, or patience. The front clip is off, and no engine, tranny, or t-case. I...

    Vacuum line from air cleaner

    So, I have looked for this on the internet, and I'm either not finding it, or I'm not recognizing it when I do find it, but I need to know where the vacuum line from the air cleaner connects to on the carburetor. Its on the underside of the snorkel, and goes to one of the ports on the carb. I...

    Hubcaps?

    So, I am finally starting the restoration of the 74, and trying to get all my ducks in a row. Ran into a small snag, concerning hubcaps. Can anyone tell me if a 3/4 ton 4x4 came with hubcaps as standard equipment? I was three when grandpa bought it, so I don't remember if it ever had them...
