Barn find 71 K2500 followed me home

Picked this up yesterday a couple hundred miles away. More pics to come but heres a couple to get started. I was after it as a parts truck but i learned it has a title and the more i look at the chassis and driveline configuration, may just have to save it.

Highlights: Very original except for engine. None of that heavy rust/pitting on frame we often see around here, D60 rear, 4spd, V8 (need to identify), power steering, Super custom, 16 inch one piece rims. Also, being a 71 3/4, its naturally got the HD dana 44 up front with original hubs (scraped up a bit though), np 205, disc brakes, power brakes

Lowlights: used a a farm truck so body is pretty rough and so is interior. I believe it was in this barn up until a couple weeks ago. Also a ton of rubbish in the cab and bed! The place where the auction was was pretty overgrown and in disrepair.

Sure was fun to winch on the trailer with two fronts off thier beads. Luckily two nice guys helped me guide it on and remove the front hubs so it would clear the fenders. Stay tuned for better pics
