    Need an honest opinion

    Use some rubbing compound and elbow grease.. a more abrasive compound (usually Red) will cut through the finish till you find black.

    Seems like a good deal in the DFW area

    Yep, 4X4 Sierra Classic… that’s a fair deal. It will take a weeks work to remove all the trashy bling, but still a decent deal.

    Stripped Holes in Rally Wheels

    Rally wheels typically have 5 holes and 3 are tapped for the center caps, tap all the holes and use 5 fasteners for a better look.

    Question on tire size for an '85 K20...

    Yes the reverse arch is normal for front leafs on the K20. I hope you’d consider keeping the steel wheels and caps, that’s a very popular look these days. A taller side wall is also the way to go. Here’s an 85 r16

    3 Point Seat Belts ‘76 C10

    Here’s some pics of the new SeatBeltsPlus belts installed. These seatbelts operate like the modern style, where the tab(male end) is over your shoulder rather than down at your hip like the original factory C10 belts.

    3 Point Seat Belts ‘76 C10

    There’s one more thing I can add, hopefully to help you buy the correct belts. Be sure to get a minimum 20” inch buckle end length (longer if possible) The supplier that supplies most of the vendors is -Seat Belt Solutions- in Jupiter Florida. The 12 inch buckle end that comes with some 3 point...

    3 Point Seat Belts ‘76 C10

    The Seat Belts Plus items have the more attractive closed retractors. You may have to color match the retractor housings. Some vendors have the open retractors. (Kinda ugly) IMO. And of course you’d want the GM release button.

    Belt trim fastener on fender?

    Yes, to reiterate what’s been said. The factory original panels had holes. The new trim attaches with adhesive only, so weld up the holes during body work if possible.

    Frame rot

    Well Doug, (in my best bedside manner voice) “Your frame has lived a long life of service and is now just moments from death. I suggest you gather the family and a Priest and prepare for the inevitable”. Try to find another frame, Preferably one from the south.

    $500 K20 Burb in Seattle

    $500 ? Yes, buy it. Detail it / Flip it. -Update: OK now that I’ve read the ad, it needs a lot more than I thought. Still could be a money maker if someone wants to put in the work.

    Best quality tail light lenses

    OEM.. used authentic GM parts. Salvage yards and swap meets are your best resources. I’ve stumbled on some NOS pieces at swap meets and eBay and still get sticker shock ! Like others have mentioned, some of the cheap (Chinese) aftermarket lenses have low quality color. I paid around $80 for a...

    15x10 Centerline Apaches

    What hasn’t been mentioned, and might convince you to keep the Rallys… “Reverse” wheels, which is what those centerlines are, have very little backspace and protrude beyond the wheel wells. This is a very Dated look (especially for a daily driver). Reverse wheels and large tires also wreak havoc...
