    1981 chevy project

    Well after about 15 years of having my eyes on this truck I finally was able to get my hands on it. I have watched this truck go from near mint condition to what it is today but it did allow me to get it for the steal of a price I got it for. I am only the 3rd owner of it and it only has 74k miles on it most of which are from being flat towed to Mexico and south Texas. 1981 chevy K20 292, sm465, 208 transfer (going to change for a 205), 410 gears. It's not a fast truck now but it will climb a mountain in low gear. Plan on getting it road worthy first and fix the body, disc brakes on the rear, then get the the good stuff and drop an LS motor in it. I will update with pics as I go, going to be a slow process but I am excited.

                  Let me know if you need any body parts. I've got an 81 that I'm fixing to pull apart and scrap. I'd sell the parts cheap.

                              The drivers door is not perfect. It has a small dent above the door lock. I can also feel a little wave in the bottom. Not sure if it has been fixed before.

                              PM me your # so we can talk.
