1980 k30 i might be getting ( PURCHASED )

[sweetk30]

went and saw a 1980 k30 today . guy came in to work today and wanted to sell it. heard i like the older chevys. so i got his info and went over after work.

well body is shot bad but the truck is a real 1ton 4x4. then i looked at the frame still solid but some scale on it. it has a 350/465/205 slip yoke style. the best part i saw was factory high back buckets and thay are white. center console still there also. and it has a factory tach cluster also.

but i think the real best part will be the 12,000 gvw spec on the door badges on the cab. not many 12k gvw trucks around here that i have seen.

hope to get it soon for a later build up or part out not sure yet.

Sounds like my k30. Patch it together lift it 4" and wheel the piss out of its. I can see through my box floor and the sides want to fall off.

[sweetk30]

Tach Dash and Bucket seats ??????

thats a rare truck man you should restore it and DD'it

 

[sweetk30]

factory tow hooks and white interior and swish cheese body ready to fall off frame. but ya a newer body would be swaped on to help make it better.

33x12.50x16.5 on it now.

 

[yellowK20]

I'll buy the buckets and brackets and console from you if you part it out

 

[yellowK20]

My dad has the exact same truck but its a 79 and he's an ass he wont sell it to me


this makes the second K30 I've seen with buckets and a 4-speed

 

[sweetk30]

i would hate to see the shipping price to alaska on the buckets and console.

 

[yellowK20]

I want it to go to New Mexico its for the truck in my Avatar

 

[sweetk30]

o.k. i get it. but just so we dont get in trouble for sales in the garage from now on pm's please.

and i got your pm message and read it and deleted it to keep the stuff private for now.

Man that truck is a gold mine of options/parts. In it's day that truck would (still is) have been the shat!

If those trailer special emblems ever need a new home, please call me first.

 

[yellowK20]

Is the tag still on the glove box??

if so would you take a picture of it so we can see the option codes?? also it would be cool o see what else it has that makes it have the 12,000GVW

 

[nvrenuf]

I agree, a list of the rpo's would be neat to see. Are you sure it's a 350? I've seen a couple of '80 3/4 tons that had 400's, that would be real cool.

 

[yellowK20]

My 79 K20 and my Dads 79 K30 both have 400's
