[Spruckalufagus]

purchased this over the summer as well as a c10 a couple months later.

1982 Gmc k15 high sierra, 35in tires, 4 inch suspension lift, 4 speed

This is my first project build ever. Paid 1400 which was deffinitly way to much... lets just say good thing i work in a body shop.

This is what happens when your 18 and stupid. lol




































TRASH






Well this is gonna be fun...






donor door












pwr windor and locks







From this picture on out is before i dismantled everything... and when i say everything i mean everything




















I miss when it used to look like a truck

















messed up the rocker, have to redo that




OFF TO THE BODY SHOP!








Latest Update:

Possibly picking up dana 60 and 70 axles this weekend.
Cab is too muffed up for my liking, buying a better shape one this sunday, repairing the old one off the truck, primering it and selling it.

Engine:
Most likley going to building it into a 383 stroker, but i would love to get my hands on a cummins 4cylinder turbo diesel. Cummins 4bt, bought a part for my tranny off a guy building one in his 86 k10 and ive been drooling over it ever since.

140-170 HP and 420 ft-pds of tourque that gets 28mpg sounds like my type of engine. Now its time to find a frito lay truck from the late 70's through 80's, chevy step vans p30, gmc p3500 and some ford cude vans came with them. Found some one craigslist but people want too much, and im not buying a woodchipper or case 580 backhoe to take the engine out of that for 14k.

Finally another under 20 here! Love that truck. I was thinking of getting a K10 before I got my C10 but the C10 I found was a lot cleaner so I went with it. Might seem like there is a lot of work to do but when it's done it will look awesome I bet.

How is that window visor mounted on your passenger door? I have been thinking about getting a set for my truck but I don't know if I want to mess with the pain of mounting them if they require much work.

haha i feel like it's even worse having a squarebody obsession at this age, no money and a desire to drive the friggen thing.

as for the visor its a couple of screw that just screw into the metal of the door, they also have plastic ones that are black/clear that just slide right into place
