Welcome to the site Longhorn 69! Looks like a nice truck to start with!

Yes he purchased the Blazer as is, also 25 - 30 years ago. It has been in the garage every since. I think the other two are 70 or 71 and are in about the same shape as the Blazer. He also has 2 suburbans I think he is going to part out or sell as is.

Here's my 68 C/30 when I got it a year and a half ago

Re: BIG BOYS -- Let's See Some 3/4 Ton & 1 ton Projects
 

And here she is today as a K/30

Re: BIG BOYS -- Let's See Some 3/4 Ton & 1 ton Projects
 

Here is one of my C20's. All original except for tires and rims. Has purchase papers, protecto plate, manuals, chrome dealer logo on side of cowl. First picture is how it is today, second picture is where we are going to go with it. Keep it a 3/4 ton, lower it with a bag system, keep the original paint, add disc brakes up front with rally wheels and possibly add the scallop striping and shop door logo. I also have a power steering assist that can go on this truck, just needs a few of the seals replaced. The truck does not really have any dents except for a small crease on top of tailgate.

Have the original 327 motor that came with the truck, however number 2 son let it run low on oil and spun a bearing. Right now it has a 307 out of 69 truck so it is a driver. This spring/summer I will rebuild the 327 and put it back in the truck.

Here is mine. 67 C20 CST Custom Camper. Kind of a rolling project right now. I hope to tear into the rockers and a few other things next spring. On the fence for a drivetrain right now.

THAT is a nice combo right there. I'd restore that thing. Orange CST Custom Camper with a small window. Perfect. GM crate or period 327, call it a day.

Picked this up about a month ago. It's a bit of a Frankenstein truck, originally a 1970 C20, the PO used a 77 K20 as a donor to make it 4wd. They did a pretty good job on the conversion. Working on the interior and mechanical now, will start bodywork after that.

my work in progress

Re: BIG BOYS -- Let's See Some 3/4 Ton & 1 ton Projects
 

Thanks jocko! Definitely keeping it around. Had it too long to even consider it, and I think my wife and kids (who all learned to drive in it) would skin me alive if I got rid of it again. Yup, again. I stupidly sold it, but bought it back 10 years later.

My 69' longhorn. It has been a good truck so far. Pulled it from a junkyard. Never plan on making it pretty, just making it WORK! It now has a 454 in it.
