I bought it for parts only.

Scrap is at $150 a ton so you can make some $$ once you strip it,sweet deal.

It's a red K10 short bed with the 91 Suburban nose. I've already stripped it down to the bare cab and frame. I'm going to keep the vin plate and title. I will be cutting this one up with the torch and giving it to the scrap guy next week. Not much left to see lol

Time for an update:

The Engine block is ready and I will hopefully have the engine all put together soon. It's a 4 bolt main vortec roller 305 block .030" over. Vortec heads, air gap intake. It'll be carbureted with headers. I'm taking the Th400/205 out and replacing it with a 700R4/208. The truck has a spool in the rear so I'll be swapping axles also with a set of 3.42:1

Are you going to leave the lift in it? What size tires are you going to put on it?
