Hey all,
Another newbe. I have a 81 K20 LWB stepside (350 4-speed w/granny low) with under 30,000 miles. The truck is all original except for the dual exhaust and headers I did at the beginning of the year. I still have the manifolds, smog pump and the old exhaust. This truck used to be the fire and emergency truck for the Dupont plant in Delaware and still has the lettering on the doors. I bought it from my uncle who still works there and was told that he's never seen it leave the grounds which explains the low miles. There's a baseball sized hole on the drivers side floor and the normal rust in the fenders.I've owned the truck for 3 years and it pulls my landscaping trailer.
I'm trying to plan a rebuild for next winter and am having trouble locating a reproduction left rear fender. It looks just like the ones on the short bed but has the square gas door on this side. My only other option if I can't find one is to find a patch panel for the wheel opening(haven't found that yet either). I will try to post pics once I figure out how to do it. Thanks
