Re: Arkansas K10

Suburban parts are in there too.

Re: Arkansas K10
I'm ready to hear it run again. I ordered a radiator yesterday.

Re: Arkansas K10
Nice work. I have a lot of admiration for guys like you, Pete, and Iron Canine that kill these kill it on these kinds of builds. Maybe one day at a different stage of life I’ll have the time to pull one off like this.

Re: Arkansas K10
Glad you are keeping the AIR equipment - I thought I was flying solo in the folly of doing so

LOL, my dad bought a new 68 C10 with A.I.R., and traded it for a new 69 because he could get the 69 without A.I.R.. Of course I am taking some liberties from the SPID, such as tilt column, AM/FM and extreme bend hooks. I cheated with the dual exhaust, 3 point harness and I may add cruise control just because I have one.

Re: Arkansas K10
I'm headed out to meet an old friend about painting the K10. Fingers crossed.

Re: Arkansas K10
Wish you luck. Hope it goes well. Getting completes done where I am is very difficult. No one wants to do them.

Re: Arkansas K10
Well that fell through, sort of. My 55 210 has been in paint jail for a couple of months. My friend wants to do it instead. I will take what I can get.
The shop the 55 is at, indicated they would rather do the truck anyway. FWIW, I am creating a backup plan for painting the truck. I have a shop I have been using for storage. It is set up for air and has water. I just need to install a compressor and I will paint the truck myself. Oh yeah, I need a refrigerator for beer.

Re: Arkansas K10
Let's say the plan for paint is fluid.
The owner of the shop that has been doing my paint for the last several years is encouraging me to use their shop and paint the truck. My 55 goes out there tomorrow. My friend that came in from NC to paint the 55 is starting on it tomorrow in that shop.

Re: Arkansas K10
The sheet metal on this truck is pretty doggone nice.
Notice the mismatch in the rocker.

Re: Arkansas K10
Good to see the factory didn’t have their shiz together sometimes either. I don’t feel so bad about my repop fitting pretty similar to that on my drivers side.

Re: Arkansas K10
But, but, but, Pete, it's original.
I have been struggling with the rocker thing. I have NOS replacements, and we all know how prone they are to rust through.

Re: Arkansas K10
Nice! That rotisserie has to come in handy big time, working on the bottom of my cab was the single biggest pain in the ass my truck has given me to date.
