Another one! 89 K30 3+3
« on: May 15, 2010, 09:59:16 am »
My bro and I picked up this beauty last night and drove it home...  this makes 6 trucks.
89 K30 dually 3+3, TBI 454, th400, np205, orginal owner, a little rough but ONLY $1200!!!!!
preliminary plans include combining his 2wd 3+3 with this one to make one "decent" one.  need to change the front axel over to SRW type, we're getting away from the 'ole dually..   and also a front clip swap to the rounded line..  a shame too, because the front end is near perfect on this one..

I guess California rough and Mass rough mean 2 different things. Around here that would have been advertised as "mint cond, just needs a wax job" and priced at $6000.
Great deal for $1200, that should make your brothers project go smoothly.
Nice to see your family score another Dana 60.

In southern Ontario K30's are hard to find, I have seen several in worse condition than that for around 5k and they were small blocks. That sounds like an amazing deal to me.

we just spent all day cleaning it out. stuffed with garbage, etc.  the guy must've lived in it at some point.  I have 3+ hours into just razor blading the windows to get that stupid purple tint off.  was half peeled off anyway. under the plastic bed liner the bed was pristine.

Right, I just re-read the post. I wonder how I missed that. Sweet ride for a stellar price.

I wish......

Awesome find. Please don't make 2 trucks into 1. A truck like that can ebe easily finished for cheap and then it would be an awesome tow rig for the other one. One for show and one for tow.

since my bro got this, his '74 gmc C25 3+3 is now a donor truck, so we robbed the motor, tranny, front clip components and the newer bed we had on it... and scrap steel bin here she comes!  another one bites the dust!  ..motor already listed on our local Craigslist..
