Hey everyone! Thought i'd join this forum to share progress on my truck and learn more!
I have a '74 Custom K20 that I bought from my best friend for $600. Pretty basic truck, am radio, power steering, and brakes are the only options i think. Been getting it running better and fixing little things, bought Ford wheels and low mile 33" tires from the same friend, had to replace the trans and am preparing for a new used engine, part time kit, rear brake job, and freshening up the interior.
Anyways here are some pictures since people love pictures lol

Hello from the Mile High City. That's a cool truck. Love the color. Looks like it has a shiny side??

Thanks! The first picture is a before and after kinda, I buffed all the paint out after I got it on the road. Still shines up nice!

Welcome from California. May I ask, what's with the brain washing antenna on the front bumper? That for a CB? When I had a CB I put the antenna in the bed.

Howdy from Kansas! Very nice '74, love the yellow.
It looks like at least one original hubcap in a photo? I hope you held on to it (original '74 tailgate is a bit difficult to find too)...

not trying to threadjack, but We just gave a whole set of these hubcaps that were brand new away to a friend. I wish I had known they were hard to find. I also ditched the original radio and steering wheel too, before I realized I liked it. Haha.

welcome from maryland

Thanks guys!
The antenna on the front bumper is for the CB, kinda like it there, different and "period". Still have 3 of the original wheels and the full set of caps, tailgate wouldn't stay latched but I still have it, need to buy new internals or spend some time on them.
