First off....thanks for the feedback. Truck has an excellent body, 4 Speed, NP 205 T case, 12 Bolt rear, factory Front axle. Nice top, very nice interior, 350 engine. Could use buttoning up and TLC. Needs air put back in.
Any thoughts on a value?

Thanks Ryan

Where'd you get those rear windows? Those are not the stock rear windows found on any K5 I've seen. They didn't offer smoked windows until the 80's and that sliding setup is not a window that came in a k5. Just curious, never seen those before.

I think those are aftermarket. Ive seen them twice now and I recall seeing them in a catalog somewhere. They don't look as good as the factory sliders. They look like they should be the back window of a pickup. OP - not trying to bash your rig, (its nicer than mine) but I bet if you put the correct body trim on it you'd add a grand to the value. It would look so much better. Whoever put that trim on must not have cared but it doesn't line up or fit the body really. Plus your truck is painted the 2 tone style to have that trim on it.
 
I think you're correct. According to the options list on page 17 it says tinted sliders. I've seen pics of many 1st gens with the same style of sliders.

Is there anyone on this sight know where to get run channels, weatherstrip and latches for the side stock sliders?
Or how about fender badges for a 84' K5?
