Re: K30 4x4 Longhorn... Is it real?

I'm not sure, after all that work, why he didn't finish the A/C ventilation system.

By the dirt under the truck, it looks like the 4x4 conversion was done quite a while ago.

Re: K30 4x4 Longhorn... Is it real?

I was wondering why he didn't install side mirrors...

Don't you need the wipers for over $15600?

Re: K30 4x4 Longhorn... Is it real?

I would say that truck started life as a 2WD automatic. Take a look at the cut-outs for the transfer case and transmission in the tunnel cover. Both look pretty hacked in to me.

Re: K30 4x4 Longhorn... Is it real?

According to the production numbers I'm looking at, no such truck exists, 2wd only (for all model years, not just 72).

That truck was nice even before the restoration. The cab appeared to have had almost no rust at all

Re: K30 4x4 Longhorn... Is it real?

A lot wrong with the truck as far as truth in advertising. Quite a few of the "resto pics" don't match the final product, descriptions are off on drivetrain. AC already mentioned although the complete firewall side of the supposed AC is for a Non-AC truck

It's a real C/30 Longhorn converted to a phantom K/20 Longhorn
