Re: 80 Chevy k10 build
I have not updated for a while, Last sat I went and picked up the 89 Suburban front clip, it is missing part of the hinges, grille, and light bezels, but it is rust free, and straight. I also got 5 8 lug 16.5 inch wheels for whenever i swap the axles on my truck to 8 lugs for when I run the 6 inches of lift and 37 inc hummer tires. I will have to get some pictures later of the clip and maybe the wheels.
For right now the project is on hold, After my father and I got the front clip, we started to clean out some hay in my grandfathers shed to put my parts truck and other trucks parts. Well after we had finished that my dad was starting to get some chest pain, but after a while it went away. Tuesday he went to the doctor and they sent him to the hospital. I guess he had a mild heart attack. Yesterday he went under the knife and had open heart surgery, and so far is is doing really well. They say that he is doing really good. He wont be able to lift more than 8lbs for a while, so for now the truck is on hold.
I might bring the heads down to my house some time and have him supervise me while I change out the valve seals, and then later on he might be able to come down to my grandpas with me and supervise me putting the engine back together.
So for now things will slowly be updated.
