That is a sexy truck. I can see why you have kept it all these years. Beautiful job on the resto

Excellent resto on your truck. Be proud and enjoy it and I'd leave the hubcaps on..

Re: Finally...20 year 1972 K20 restoration complete!

Here's a few more pics, including the interior and bed. When I priced a kit for the bed floor, I thought "I've spent enough already on this truck" so I made my own floor. If I had it to do over again I would probably do it back factory, but at the time it seemed like a good idea.

Beautiful truck! If I had that truck to do, I would have done it up exactly like you did. It's perfect to my eye.

Whenever I see something all faded and beat up, I just think about how it looked when it came off the showroom floor and how proud that original buyer was. Now that you've got it like new again, you should be proud.
