Re: 1960 Apache K10 build

Well...I decided it was time to bring this thread back from the dead.

I know i had posted earlier about building a shop. However, life is funny sometimes, and that just didnt work out like i planned. Life got in the way. So I had started searching for some shop space to rent near me, and after months of searching, I finally found a perfect little spot. I got myself all moved in over the weekend, and got back to work on the project! It is a bit of a stretch target, But i would really like to get this thing to move under its own power before the yend of the year.

The big picture plan is to just get it on the road. So I am planning to use as many factory systems from the tahoe as possible for the time being. No engine swap, no headers, no cam swap. Bare minimum to get it moving.

I have watched enough of the youtube builders that all say the same thing. Get your project driving, and it will give you the motivation to keep going. So I want to try to move it under its own power, even if it is just around the block, and I can do all the rest of the fun stuff like cam swaps, 6.0 swap etc over the winter, and I will have more drive.

More to come!
