No PDL, PW, has air been changed to R134, how many miles on the tires, how old is the exhaust, why is the air intake tube missing?

$5000, period.

I did feel it was suspicious that all the emblems were lying in the floor, and that paint seems a little too nice for 44 years old.

I'm not seeing power windows or locks in the pictures unless I'm missing something.

regardless, unless there's a bunch of bondo under the paint and/or electrical hackery underneath that price isn't bad and it'd be almost impossible to build that for that price point.

I say it's a good price for a clean rig. The SPID shows the options it came with unless it's a fake SPID.

I have more than that in my k5 build and I'm doing the work.

I thought power windows and locks started in 77.

You're right. '77 or 78.

Too bad dash is cut for modern radio. Nice looking K5. Would really look good with factory wheels.

Shouldn't it have an amp gauge?? Looks like a 1979-80 hood... Nice looking truck otherwise.

Looks to be fairly unmolested too. Maybe a bit steep, but in the right part of the country, it's a steal.

Around here, a k5 goes minumim dollar 2500, and that's for a 88-91 generally....
Most the time, 80's k5 will go for 5 and up.

A 70s model k5 that isn't a total rust bucket can be had for 10k and up.

Anytime I take a picture of something for sale and there's a slight glimpse of my k5 in the background, the people are harassing me to buy the body and frame.

So when I say that 76 with its original miles for 8600 is a steal, for me, it is a damn steal.
Thats sometimes a 15k buy here.
Yes, people are that proud if their trucks.

Asking :

Can I sell my k5 with the 5 tons and 502 and all for 50k?
Literally nearing 35k invested in the whole truck [emoji1782]
Stupid.
And I'm declaring I'm not trying to "show off" I just don't understand the logic.
