What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)
It’s what it’s worth to you! Would you trade for a new Silverado, I wouldn’t. A new Silverado goes for over 50 grand, so……. I guess thats at least what it’s worth. Thats also the “Not for Sale Price!” KEEP IT, IT WILL ALWAYS BE A TANGIBLE PIECE -

HELP WITH WHEEL AND TIRE SET UP
Did the K series have 10” wheels? If they did, are they 5 or 6 lug? Something I’ve wondered. I think 10” ralley’s in the back would look nice.- Finkaire

Help me decide, paint the camper shell light blue or dark blue
I struggled with the color when I painted mine. White would have been the original color for mine at the time. The original color for the time might have also been black. IMHO, I think black would look best on your truck, but what do i know, you asked! -
