Good buy?

'84 K30 454 4spd. Haven't seen it but I think it's a 205, has locking hubs. Some rust, reportedly just passed smog, 75k on the ticker, dunno if that's correct. Thinks it has A/C - maybe not working. Guy is asking 3k, I'd get it if I had some $, my buddy is thinking about getting it for a towrig/mild wheeler. I can't think of a reason not to get it. Anything we should watch out for? How much smog junk is it gonna have? I'm pretty well-versed in Chevy's but it never hurts to ask.

Thanks.

Most of those big block 4 speeds , if not all of them , got the 205 . Should be 32 spline slip yoke rear 205 .

Friend had one , a flatbed with a gooseneck , he bought it for the 60 and drove it for nearly a year .

Well, my friend decided to pass on it. If anyone is interested, let me know and I'll pass on the contact info.

Wouldn't an 84 still have a 10 spline 205? Didn't think the 32 spline 205/465 combos came about till 85 or later..

Washougal was the boondocks east of Portland, OR.. but no more... to many damn yuppies.

The MX track is supposed to be the only thing we are known for
