« on: December 02, 2014, 05:30:49 pm »
My 1987 chevy k20 project. I am 13 and my dad gave me this truck to spend my money on. I hope to drive it in high school. So about the truck. It's got an original 350. Original interior. it was repainted same as original about 15 years ago (time to do it again). It's got a 4" suspension lift with a 2" body lift. She's rollin on 315 75 16 (35") Nitto terra grapplers and its got tinted side windows from having the cap on it. Will post as I progress

Picture with cap is when started and the other picture is current.

Welcome from TN/VA and soon to be Main.. Your Dad gave you some of the best year of your life to come. Just for refrence when you o searching for parts you will not find a K20 in a model listing. It will be a V20. for some reason thay changes the model fo this year in preps for the following year when they went to IFS on the 1500. Good luck and you should find anything you need here.
