Body swap on a c10 1981 to a 1985 k1500
Welcome from Austria. 81-89 C and K trucks use the same body mounts. You just need the right ones for the year your truck was build. https://www.lmctruck.com/body-components/body-mounting/cc-1981-87-cab-bed-to-frame-mounting-hardware-radiator-core-support- ali_c20

Eastwood Versus POR15
I painted the frames of my K5 and C20 after blasting with a quality primer and 2k chassis paint from the same company. I applied it with brush and roller as I can't use a paint gun at my garage. The K5 frame was done over 10 years ago and still is spotless. I went to a local paint store and...- ali_c20

K5 Blazer values… possibly buying 86 k5
6k seems fair. That K5 would be 15 - 20K in Austria. Get a soft top, I love my Soft Topper.- ali_c20

New wiring dosnt do anything when key is on.
Try the same test with the buzzer of the multimeter. If there is a short it will beep. Have you checked all the fuses? Members with better knowledge about electrics can help you more as I can.- ali_c20

When you are shied off from people you don't know having different opinions you are may be a bit thin skinned? I would take it as an opportunity to think about if what I want to do is that great.- ali_c20

22" wheels look awful on old trucks. It's your truck you can do to it whatever you want. Stick with 17" or 18" max and safe yourself a lot of problems with rubbing, steering angle, ride quality. Just my 0.02$- ali_c20

I vote for ground. Have you temporary grounded your exterior lights to the chassis/ body ? Ground connection from chassis/body to battery ? On the 3rd picture of the original post there is no ground connected to the battery.- ali_c20
