Default New guy with 84 k10

Hey guys as u can see im new here, just recently i bought a 1984 chevy k10 shortbed.
It is a little rough and needs some work, thats why i bought it just as a project.
Has a 350 4spd
mild cam
holley 650 double pumper
edelbrock intake
7in lift (4in suspension 3in body)
35in durango radial A/T tires, i cant find these anywhere but im guessing they are a cheaper tire although they are like 90% tread so they will stay on for a while

Needs mostly body work and a little bit of cleaning up inside

So what do u guys think??

Wow you don't play around! Thanks alot for the pictures! I have done MANY 81-87 C-10's so those pictures bring back alot of memories. I agree on the tach it needs to be moved or removed.

Got almost all the interior ripped out today, seat it out carpet and rubber floor mats along with all the insulation.
Driver side floor pan is mostly out, it was replaced before but just bolted to the floor with some clear epoxy over the seams.
Now just need to order my passenger side floor pan and rocker and get them in before winter.

Im prob going next week to pick up bed sides a bed floor and a set of long tube headers from my buddy (everything is in good shape)

Ill get some pics of the interior tomorrow or the next day.

As promised, pics of what is left of my interior, pretty much everything is out other than the dash or all that, but the floor is all cleaned up.

In this pic you can see the big hole in my floor, and if your wonder most of the wires wrapped around my steering column are wires to all the speakers that sit behind my seat, plus the ones in the corners of the cab that werent hooked up and mayb 2 more as im putting the inside all back together.
