Hi guys.

I'm Paulo from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and this is my first Chevy truck. 1980 K30 with a four cylinder air cooled diesel. As you can see, needs a lot of work.

Thanx guys. I´m new in this Chevy world but I worked on my Fords a lot.

So, this pick up needs work, too much. Basically she has no brakes, the SM 465 has shifter issues, doesen´t have transfer case shifter, and I must to reinstall the electrical system.

So, I will start a build thread, and I will appreciate your help.

Welcome! Awesome engine but they are noisy, to put it mildly.

hee, well, it´s a 4 cylinder diesel with an inline pump. The noise is inevitable. But it´s so reliable and simple. It could get so good mileage.
