    Great video buddy but one huge thing I look at is cracking at the frame where the gearbox mounts.

    Was this truck rusted out when you bought it? And how much did you pay for it

      @@kupie1399 no. I paid 14k for it. I put about 5k into it replacing the interior, new tires, rear bumper ect.

    Nice truck man, be cooler if it were a manual 😉 I’m down in San Antonio. I have an 86 K10 that’s pretty clean. If you’re even down this way, it would be cool to get them together

    I don’t have to buy a Square-body … I Technically inherited it.
    1985 Chevrolet K10 Scottsdale. Wish it worked, family, Grandmother and Uncle, neglected her maintenance.
    I only got my learners permit recently but technically became mine when i was 12 after the original owner, my Grandfather, passed away, i’m 24 now, and in the 12-year interim, My Uncle mainly used her, my grandmother, even though her name is on the registry wanted nothing to do with it, and because my uncle did Sketchy Shit (Drug-Using and Selling up until recently he was caught in Oklahoma and sent to prison.) her maintenance wasn’t kept up til she wouldn’t start, and she hasn’t started for 5 years.
    it’s fixable, She’s intact and no rust holes body-wise, it’s just the Engine and internals that’s Screwy, it’s had Two engine replacements over her life, but she’s interesting engine-wise, and a Friend of mine offered to fix her for Parts Cost, all i gotta do now is find a way to get the cash to fix her up.

    The hardest rust area for me is the front and rear windows, if you can take windows out before you buy. It's very hard to patch because the contour of the metal, first hand knowledge. my trucks on my page.

    I really like your channel but personally ill say rust aint so bad if you know here are the steps .... 1st 100$ is enough to de rust ...well all classoc paint for chevy is at walmart...u need to figure out what primer goes with what color so u can paint back original i dont just paint my colors unless show truck.... I drive a truck called coffee ...rust chrome and black would look like coffee right....get your paint worked out figure out what your doing then buy sand papper hand sand a small spot till no rust is seen and all u see is shiney metal then get fiberglass filler sheet kit from walmart cover tge hole with the gel in the pack then stick your sheet on the gel rub more gel on the sheet then let dry next day hard as a rock spray primer over be aggressive then sand again itll look flush spray paint your cab corner or whatever on the truck wtf
