1985 k10 ideas

[Blake116]

I wanted to make a post to get everyone's ideas and support. I'm about to purchase a 1985 k10 and want to restore it and make a beautiful truck out of her. Still debating on which way I want to go: paint color, wheels and size, interior etc. Hope I'm welcome here looking forward to see the comments and get some ideas. Thank you and looking forward to making some progress posts about this truck in the following weeks.

Welcome.
Looks half ready for paint, so that’s a plus!
What color was it?
Regardless, IMO, you can’t go wrong with the classic white stripe and/or white roof look.

Welcome to the site. What's the image in your head? I would suggest perusing google images and look for a color that pops to you. Then look at interiors, suspensions, wheel/tire combos, etc.

Everyone is going to have different thoughts which is great, but you're not building everyones truck you're building yours.

I vote for return to as stock is possible.

The wheels, the bumpers, all gotta go.
I vote to swap em for factory chrome bumpers and natural aluminum wheels but only cuz that's what I like.
RWL or bust BB

Good luck!

That’s a good lookin truck. You can make it look real good for not that much money. Just depends on how much effort you want to put into it.

You vote "Stock" then say get rid of the rally wheels... Kinda contradictory pard
