61K10 build

[RANDY COX]

Hey 61K10 glad to see your build, Maybe I'll get motivated on mine, waiting for the weather to break, as it's outside...Love that color..

[61K10]

63c-10--I thank the ez runs a 404 all my saws are 404 except the 35A which has a 7/16 or something like that.

Mitch--tk had the 305 in it when i bought it. the reason i know it was a 6 is the ft eng mount was cut off the front and re-welded on the rear of the x-member.

[61K10]

Randy--you will get there------

Hey 61K10 I see your at it again, one piece at a time my friend, I did go and get some gas and put in my truck today and fired her up. I'll be soooo glad when it's spring time..
Lookin good.

[TJ's Chevy]

Looks good bud! Hey where did you purchase the wiring harness?

[61K10]

T.J.---I had the fuse block from another project from a few rears ago. took my old org. harness apart, cut all the sodered wires apart run new if needed and re-raped harness. now everything is on it's own fuse.

ok some body pic's--

bedside looks good till blasting. used one of mine and one i bought and it was full of filler.

put bedsides back on tk for blocking (thats just my idea) helps me see

pic of door dents. dents were on both sides (stops were broken)

black is epoxy and gray 2k primer

[61K10]

some more---bored YET? out door paint booth

[61K10]

a couple more--don't know if i will watch the 500 or go weld my d/s rocker in--

[RANDY COX]

Progress,progress, I like the outdoor garage too if the weather is nice...

[MitchFloyd]

Nice work on those bedsides! Are you running stock leaf springs on your K10? I really like the stance of the pic of the rear. It shows good clearance!
I had mine rebuilt and opted to stay with the original height & clearances. Hopefully, it'll look that good. If not, I may have to go back and add a leaf.

[1963c-10]

I agree, nice work on the bedsides. I still need to find some of the e-z-steps for the fleetside. They are scares when looking for them and everywhere when I didn't have a fleetside.

[61K10]

Mitch--I have 2 more leafs in the rear, built like over-loads. they only raise it about 3/4"

63c-10 they come up on e-bay now and then

[61K10]

removing cab and at my buddy's to get blasted and epoxy

[61K10]

at the blasters----------a lot of holes showed up---need new rockers/cab corners---

[61K10]

some painted pieces------and my paint booth

[RANDY COX]

I know it has to feel good to get some paint on there...Looks GoooooooooooooD!!!

[1963c-10]

Paint looks damn good!!

[61K10]

2 watching--maybe should be in 4x4? but usually they are 67--up.

[chevy_man5]

I'm here too! Just watching jealously... LOL

Looking great, keep it up!!

[MitchFloyd]

I gotta check the data tag on my '62. I'm hoping it's a 703(Neptune green) color instead of the 503 (Glenwood green). I like it a lot better.

[61K10]

everything is color sanded and buffed. being outside and not a painter, some orange peel needed to be removed. there are some small waves--tiny dents that i missed. good enough for me.

Mitch-- the neptune is hard to take pic's of, it changes color somewhat with different light on it.

[MitchFloyd]

That's exactly the way they came factory too! lol I don't think they were painted like they are nowadays. But mine will be the same as well. I'm not going for a $10K paintjob. Just something that looks good rolling by.

Looking good, keep the pics coming.
