More work on the k5

[1969k10stepside]

I think after I start body work I'll just start a official build thread
I took off the old GMC tailgate which was rusted to nothing and swapped in a decent shape with only minor rust Chevrolet tailgate,original paint,BTW.I then swapped out hoods for an extra I had due to the previous one being rusty.After getting it on I had a fight with the hinges trying to get the hood to shut.It was sitting up high in the back but I took care of that problem
The plans are to do the body work on it now while it sits low and then once done with the body work,add a suspension lift.I will probably just primer it for now,but might go ahead and get some cheap paint and shoot it now...Notice the mud on it...its been out at the river trying out the 4wd...Also notice the original '70 grill swapped in that doesnt have one piece cracked..
