Re: Newbie, Buying my first. 72 GMC K20
Before you buy the truck, verify that the VIN plaque is in place (driver side door frame below the striker plate). Without the original VIN plate, registering this truck can be a real pain in the ass.
The VIN number will give you some basic info about the truck when it was built (4x2 or 4x4, I6 or V8, GVW, wheelbase, fleetside or stepside, assembly plant).
And I agree on the fleetside. Yours looks to be a longbed, and usable longbed fleetsides can be found for not too much money (I paid $100 for mine).
