Project "Hulk Jr"

[First c10]

Hello guys. As some of you know I am building a truck "Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk" " which will now be a '70 K20 with a 67/68 front end and 1/2 ton running rear.

This is a new thread on the original Hulk truck....

So the story starts like this.
My son wanted a 4X4 and I told him i would not buy him one but if he could find someone to trade the 4 wheeler for it I would do it.

So what does he find..... a 68 K10 LWB 8 hours away so after a little coordination we traded the guy a 4 wheeler (Articat 500) that we never used for the dark green 68 K10 for my youngest son. He called it "the Hulk" which was the reason for the project name.
History on the truck:
I got is from the second owner and he got it from the original owner the original owner own a gravel pit at the California/Oregon border.

As I started doing homework on what was needed to rebuild the truck I figured that I did not want to tear a good truck apart to only use a few pieces for the build and get stuck with random parts. Not in a hurry I was able to locate all the parts to build a complete truck.

This thread will be on the original Hulk truck Now Named "Hulk Jr"
Its has the original 307 engine, a SM465 and Rockwell T-221. no power steering, no power brakes, 4 wheel drums. base model...

The plans are to update the running gear, braking system, add power steering and replace the front axle to get front disk brakes. The nice thing is I have most of the big parts laying around from other projects spare parts.
engine, axle, brake booster, steering box, etc. the plan is to keep stock stance
I am looking for a 700R4 and a 208/241 t-case.

I will try and post updates to this thread and not join the 2 threads.


Wish me luck!!!
