Overview

I recently picked up a K20. The plan is routine maintenance and adding some nice things to it here and there.

I plan on driving it weekly, picking up parts with it and hauling my junk across the country with it the next time I move.

It's a '79 K20 with the following: 350/400/203, D44/14BFF.

I'm notorious for tearing trucks apart, adding a lot of goodies and then parting them out. I'm going to try to avoid doing that with this one.

Here it goes! :woot: '79 K5 Cheyenne 400 SBC/TH350/NP203 It is unmolested and all original. It still has all of the jack accessories clamped down on the passenger inner fender, original owners manual and original warranty card. I believe that the spare tire in the back is the original spare from the factory too. It still has all of the emblems on both sides, factory wheels with dog dishes and all electronics, lights and tailgate glass work. It has a nice patina going for it, rusty rockers...
