c1500 to K2500 body swap
I have a 1990 c1500 (auto) (now the 3rd generation in the family to drive it, you understand) and I have the opportunity to get a 1990 k2500 (manual) for cheap. How difficult would it be to swap the body from mine to the k2500?
I understand I would need to do some minor cutting for the 4x4 lever and shifter, but I imagine the body mounts would line up perfectly.
So from what I can think of, I would pull the engine and steering, unbolt the body and swap it onto the other frame.
Any ideas?
I fear the transmission on the c1500 may soon have its last day...
