Re: New to me 1972 K5

So here are the plans so far: (after the general maintenace to make sure its road worthy)

I want to build a frame work that replaces the factory console and run a floor shifter. B&M 81040.
I will try and figure out a cable operated NP205 stick to match.
The original bucket seats are gone so I will probably find some late model seats that fit.
There is a cage in there now but I dont like the design so that will be redone.
Replace to stock bumpers with .... something. (no winch)
8 lug upgrade Front and Rear (keep stock housings)
Rear disc brakes @ 8 lug upgrade time
H2 Hummer 17" wheels

The BIG wish list item will be an aluminum 6.0L with 4L60e/NP205 drivetrain....

Similar console idea (but in a square body)


B&M


H2 wheels painted


D44 8 lug upgrade:
