    82 C10 fuel injection upgrade

    I love seeing people upgrade to FI on these great trucks. My 87 R30 still has it's first generation TBI, and it's great.

    We're currently winding down our smart phone use. That world has become crazy.

    Seat cover

    We operate a small leather shop, and I'm thinking of redoing the seat in my 87 R30 in—wait for it—leather.

    Cab swap

    One of those cab swaps was a 67 GMC onto a 73 Chevy 3/4 ton. I had a title for the 67 but not for the 73. Kept the ID plate for the 67 and titled the composite as a 67. Was no problem.

    Cab swap

    I've done cab swaps on several GM trucks through the years. I transferred the ID plates to new cabs and never had any problem in NC. YMMV

    Welding/body work

    I've been welding for decades. Started with oxy/acetylene then stick. That was before mig was available. Got a mig in 2002. Never had training, don't claim particular skill. Nonetheless, I've gotten to where I usually do good work. Still, sheet metal can give me fits. I keep playing with the...

    Hood brace kits?

    I'd never heard about the "intentional fold in a crash" component. That may be true, but the things crumpling in use has always aggravated me. I try to keep the hinges well lubed. I've never added stiffeners, but now I'm thinking about it.

    Full tilt front end.

    I'm jealous. Always wanted a tilt front.

    Long Time Square Body Lover

    The truck originally worked for the phone company in Gastonia, NC. I bought it in 2011 because it had a new engine. Transmission was out. When I put it on the road two years ago, I pulled the utility body. I was in a hurry to haul round bales, so I built the flat bed from treated lumber. Thought...

    New member here. 78 k10

    I used to have an 8O K10 that I bought in 85. Automatic with manual hubs. Did what I needed and went where I wanted. One of my favorite trucks ever, so of course it was stolen in 88.

    Will be owning soon in Texas

    I live without AC in my 87 R30 here in North Carolina, but it’s not my preferred situation.

    Long Time Square Body Lover

    I was 20 when the Square Body first arrived. My dad bought a new half ton that year, and I bought a new 3/4 ton the next year. Both were long bed fleet sides. Since then, we’ve had a SB most of the time since. Dad had two at the time of his death in ‘96: a 74 and an 87. My current SB is an 87...
