Finally registered

[1964K0]

I've been a long time visitor, but finally decided to register to share some pics of what my wife has named the Beast.

I found this 64 K10 in front of a barn out in the country a couple of years ago & drug it home, much to my wife chagrin. It's a very rough old truck, but being a real 64 short bed K10, I couldn't resist it. It set in the back yard for a bit till I could finish up some other stuff, then pulled it up to the shop to start working on it.

It originally had a 283, but I've put a TBI 350 from a 87 model in it's place. My plan is to get it mechanically sound, but leave the body in as found condition, at least for now. I will get around to doing a thread on it, but for now, here is how it was when I spotted it.






And finally after getting time to get it to the shop

After I registered, I noticed I spelled the name I intended to use wrong, left out the 1 in K10. Who do I reach out too to see about changing that for me?
