Kansas K2500
« on: July 13, 2013, 10:56:40 am »
Hi,

I am glad to have found this forum. It is a wealth of information. I bought a 1974 GMC K2500 Camper Special about 6 months ago. Everyone calls it "Rusty" but it runs and drives well. It has spent it's entire life on a farm. It is not beat to heck just rusty. I plan on fixing the body in the years to come.

I'm not sure anybody wants to see this rusty old thing, but I will add some pics this weekend. She runs great ,but looks like heck.

Welcome from Michigan. And I have a "rusty but trusty" truck and I love it, cause it gets me to where I need to go and I do not give a crap what I put in the back or if I scratch it put things in and out of it.
