1978 K20 farm truck "Boring maintenance phase"

1978 K20- Rusty beater farm truck
It really is quite a treat, even though mine isn’t up to most people’s standards it’s fun to drive something around that’s 40 years old and getting less and less common to see on the road
Which is why I've been working on that other Blazer.
Cuz Blazer Bash?
Not really much of an update. It starts every time and just keeps doing its job. The suburban tank was a good choice, I think I just filled the tank for the 4th time this year so far
I have been having thoughts of Welding a couple patch panels that I already own into the other cab and making it less of a rusty pos. Then tossing on my Service body and making it all black but we’ll see. That’s also time and ambition that needs to go elsewhere. And it’d be less fun to beat on if it was nice

I sure like that truck.
Thanks Greg me too! I should put some effort into making it nicer at some point
Meh. This one works. Finish up your XJ obsession before you tear into the functioning rig. No use having a yard full of dead trucks. Or fuller, in your case.
I might be losing track...but didn't you sell off your extra truck cab?
Are we talking the red cab attached to an A833 & a chassis? Or am I mixing up your spare junk?

That K10 disappeared early summer. The spare 79 Silverado cab I’ve still got
I’ve actually been having some dillusions of grandeur about putting a cab and chassis dual axle in the back under my service body, a dually 60 in the front, and these badges on the fenders. They came from the truck that donated the cab
Again, finish the other rig(s) before ripping this one back apart. Delusions are just that, no matter how grand they seem...

Fixed. And cool

I’ve always had that dream, would love to find out how to use a 203 like a power divider. Then you could have the rear axles locked together or allowed to differentiate like normal.

You get "farm show" magazine?
https://www.farmshow.com
They have hilighted a few homemade pickup 6x6 converts before.
I Really like this idea! Always wanted an inboard Dually they look awesome
Yeah...that magazine greatly contributed to my love of hacking bits of machinery together.
I blame it for more than a few of my questionable ideas. Wood gas included.
