Re: 1984 K30 Project Plow Truck

Thanks guys. I'm pretty excited about it.

Once I got it home and hooked the plow up, the weather cooperated and it snowed quite a bit. I plowed quite a bit and figured out a few of the quirks. It took a few starts to recall how to work a carburetor and set the high idle before turning the key. The block heater works great, battery has a trickle charger wired in, and heater blows hot as can be.

The flat bed has a decent amount of rust on it, and there is a hole in the driver's rocker, and misc corrosion throughout the truck, but mechanically it seems very solid. If I get to keep it, I may try to sell the bed and lift to help the cash flow and put a regular bed on it. It's going to be neglected until my L29 swap gets finished on the crew cab though. I'll take some more pics next time I put it to work.
