My name is Brent Silk from Macon, North Carolina. This truck would not leave my thoughts after seeing it under a shed with 10 years of dust on it and having to remove several snake skins just to sit on the seat!! Something about this one just says there isn't another like it.
My truck is a 1965 K20 and a 292 L6 with a 4 speed transmission backing it up and power brakes to stop it and enough fire warning lights to drive an electrical engineer insane. Everything is in working order on this truck (except for the pump, needs the seals replaced) and the only rust is few and far between with no rot, just surface rust. I have not been able to find another like this one so if anyone has pictures of them, let me know!!I have been doing a lot of work to the motor and decided here recently to switch it up to a v8. Besides the motor swap (and eventually a transmission swap) which will happen in a few weeks, I am going to keep the truck original. It has been painted several times over the years to keep the red, red. The truck has 15620 miles on it when it was parked over ten years ago because it broke down. After a little tweaking, like rebuilding the carb, new lifters, pushrods, oil pump, coil and a starter, she came together quite nicely. I bought the truck for $300 so my budget can go pretty high on this one. Right now I am getting the drive train and brakes where it all needs to be so that I can drop my motor in when it gets here. I tried to take pictures of everything that most people would find interesting, and I plan on updating as parts come in and as money allows. She is a beauty in her own class.
