Re: 68 K20 Panel truck, ex. civil defence vehicle

Sorry for being quiet for so long. The little girl kept me busy, so I didn´t get to do much on the panel. Trying to get back to it this winter. I will post pics again soon!

Re: 68 K20 Panel truck, ex. civil defence vehicle

Long pause and I appologize for that. Kid and what has happening in the world made priorities change. However I did get some more disassembly done. Brakes are off and now it needs some body work.

Still unsure as of takeing the engine apart or just painting it. It runs and does not smoke at all, runs fine, so might just risk of keeping it in there.

Very slow process, but things are kicking back up.

Glass will come out this month.

As for the body, unfortunately the driver side rocker and floor have a few small holes. The rear quater behind the rear wheel has a big dent and I hope to save the panel without cutting that. Driver side between the wheels, seems to have a lot of bondo in there, let´s see what happens after dry ice blasting it.

I did gather a few more NOS parts for it, as I try to do everything NOS and OEM that I can possibly get my hands on.

Stay tuned, I will get back on this thing now....

Glad you're back at it. I wondered what was happening a few times.
