Hi All,

Just joined and thought I would share my 85 k3500, bought it a couple months back at the 100 square body auction. Currently should have rockers and cab corners fixed up next couple days, front clip and
box are coming off. Going to clean up the frame and will probably rewire it with a painless kit. I am sure I will have plenty of questions along the way.

Welcome from NM. Tell us a little bit more about that K3500. Does it have the Dana 60 up front, 454?

It has the 350 in it, 4:10 gears and if memory serves does have the 60 up front. I know it was used a plow truck for a school system in Oklahoma and has 105k original miles. It had a flatbed on it and was switched to a regular bed for the auction.

Nice looking one ton. Did the flatbed come in the auction price?

Welcome from the Black Hills of South Dakota. I really wanted to go to that auction, but have too many projects already.

It was a great auction, they sold a ton of parts beforehand which left plenty of time for drinks which is probably why I spent 2k above what I wanted to lol
