Woohoo,
Just got a '75 K20 for free . Mostly wanted it for the running gear, but the owner said I can get it running no problem. He said the bed may be in rough shape, but the cab is OK with a little rust on the lower door sills. I'll take a look at it and decide whether to use the running gear for my '87 1/2 ton or fix it up.
Here's the goods, 327 engine ran when he parked it (replaced a previous 350), auto tranny (don't know if it's TH350 or TH400), NP203 (bad shape, but has a spare NP203 that works). It's a 14 bolt rear, but he wasn't sure about the front. Has 4.11 gears so probably work pretty good with bigger tires.
I won't be able to tow it home for 3 weeks, but gets my mind thinking of the possibilites.
