Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

Hello All
New to the board and thought I would post a few pics of my 1982 K30. I have had 4 or 5 square bodied Chevys but this one is by far my favorite so far. My Wife, kids and I made a 2400 mile round trip from Colorado to Washington state to pick up this beast. The price was right. Originally I was just looking for a good solid work/ hunting truck to beat around in with my boy but now we have decided to do a full restoration/ build on this. Right now it has a rebuilt 350/rebuilt th350/np205. New drive lines and rebuilt rear end with a new grizzly locker. I have already junked the original Qjet and cast intake for an Edelbrock intake and carb and a set of Edelbrock chrome valve covers and air cleaner. Made a huge difference in how it runs but it still needs more power.
My build plans include
Full repaint and new cloth interior
2.5" Procomp lift kit
swap in a 454 and 700r4 trans

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

Welcome and great looking crew! Mine has the 350 also and was a little anemic too. I stuck a 177 weiand blower on top, now it runs better than any big block crew I ever had. Picked up 1 mpg too!

P.S. More pics please (interior,etc.)

I think you need more lift or smaller tires lol

It does look like a big rig though.

Agreed that is pretty nice. That is about what lift and tire size I think I would like as well.

Re: How about some pics of 73-91 crew cabs

New to the forum, just picked this up over here in the UK. When I saw it for sale I found this thread while searching for some more info on the model and 171 pages later I was inspired enough to buy it. She's a bit rough round the edges but all adds to the character!
