Perfect name "The Dog"

brady01 · 08-02-2021, 07:35 PM

Wasn't super happy with how the intake turned out so I stripped it and repainted it.

Cool truck! You’ll make a lot of memories with it

Thank you that's the plan!

brady01 · 08-06-2021, 12:01 PM

Hoping to install new engine tomorrow.. got a lot of new parts hopefully everything i need for a while.

**landarts** · 08-09-2021, 05:33 PM

Interior looking great and very practical. Love the build!

That's the plan just keep it nice and stock. Still needs a lot of cleaning.

brady01 · 08-16-2021, 02:17 PM

Nothing super exciting to share yet. Still a few loose ends before firing but we're getting closer.

I did score a set of wheels for it today 15x8 4nubs to run factory caps. I've looked for a set of these for a while they are hard to find.

Gonna have them blasted and painted white with factory caps and a mud tire of some sort.

**landarts** · 08-16-2021, 03:06 PM

They also sell clips that are attached to rims so you can put the old caps on. A few guys here have used them and said they work well. They are used sometimes when the guys put the oversized transport rims on the truck and want the old caps to work.

I'm interested to know as well. I tried to find some a couple years ago but came up short.

**Jiggers72-GMC** · 08-16-2021, 06:32 PM

Well done so far, what did you paint the exhaust manifolds with ??? thanks

You're welcome!

Nice work on your K10! definitely stinks on the engine but you made the right choice. I've been thinking of putting a rubber mat in my K20 I want to plow with. Maybe it'll be easier to clean?

I really wanted carpet because I love how new carpet looks, but muddy footprints come off of a rubber mat much easier .

brady01 · 08-28-2021, 04:04 PM

He's alive! Didn't drive it yet, but will be driving it soon.

**Jiggers72-GMC** · 08-29-2021, 07:15 PM

Right on Brady, it sure looks good from here man.

**IronCanine** · 08-29-2021, 10:00 PM

Congrats on getting it running!

brady01 · 08-29-2021, 11:23 PM

Thank yall!

brady01 · 08-31-2021, 08:20 PM

Here's a tip.. don't sell your wheels until your replacements are ready. Lol

Still haven't drove the truck, now it runs and is ready to drive but is on Jackstands for a while. Gotta have my steel wheels blasted and painted.

I'm gonna drive this thing one day!!!

**Jiggers72-GMC** · 09-01-2021, 07:31 AM

LoL, thanks for the 'pro tip' hehehe ......... just put'em back on and giv'er

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-01-2021, 09:02 AM

Congrats on getting it running! I got an old beater K20 running a few weeks ago for the first time in years. Now it just needs an entire new body.

duke10 · 09-05-2021, 03:19 PM

Where did you get the rubber mat for the floor?
Thanks
