Heeeeeey, it WAS cold :lol: Back in the south now and I'm sweating. "How to: Ruin a Perfectly Good K/5" thread coming soon. Lots of ideas for this one, but not exactly sure how it will end up. I would almost feel bad for doing anything other than an NOS resto...

Almost ;)

She's home! More pics, threads, and sig updates to come. As for the McGyver comment--those coat hangers were STOUT! Prolly coulda made it home, but didn't want to chance it. No problems the rest of the way. Oh, and the kids love it :chevy:

<---- :Jealous/:

My daughter is pushing me to add an early K5 to the collection. Don't want to give up my TBSS tho for a parking space to get one now tho. Still jealous! :lol:

We're still planing to move to the country so we can spread out, grow some nice veggies, and I can have a proper shop and storage area so that I can keep everything "out of site". I'm sure I'll be getting in trouble when "then" comes tho...getting caught hiding projects behind the shop that won't fit inside. :lol:

Now you're talking!
I see an LS in the blazer's future.
Congrats on the early Christmas present. Awesome addition to any Chevy
Collection.

Super Nice work on your truck, I actually want mine to look identical, except i am going with the chrome arm mirrors and woodgrain trim. I'm thinking about the hotrod flatz steel blue. Here is a VW bus thats painted using hotrod flatz steel blue

Kool bus, i really like the paint.

Re: How to: Ruin a perfectly good C10
 
That's a good color, too. I thought about doing that for an old Air Force truck look:
