1976 K20 - update

Coupe pictures on the progress of my 76 K20...its been a very slow process...getting close to being finished though!

Items updated/replaced not shown in picture:
  • New Clutch
  • New Bellhousing
  • New Fuel Pump, Alternator and water pump
  • Basic tune up (plugs, oil, belts...etc)
  • New rear window (upgraded to a slider)
  • POR15 on most of the frame

Attached are two pictures - how it looked the day I bought it and how it looks as of today.
Attached Images

Nice job.

Is that front Firestone Transforce tire a 9.50x16.50 tire?

I'm thinking of getting those on my stock 16.5 rims.

Love the look of that truck. Looks like a solid body but it has that raw look which is awesome.

That's exactly what I'm trying to do with it - simple, raw and solid.
