Re: 68 K-10 SWB build thread - project Money Pit...pics galore!
Glad you asked, yesterday I painted the ramhorns with some VHT paint. I bought these at a car show (still 2" vette manifolds) and they have some kind of super duper coating on them. I didn't realize it until I ground down some of the casting slag... by then I realized that this wasn't just a basic spraypaint job they had done. So the best way to clean them up again was the VHT paint. Think anyone will notice that they are different styles?
Today I want to get an alternator, mount the pulley's and fan and get the rad support ready for PC. ![]() ![]()

Also good news, looks like I "should" be moving into a new position at work in a few months. That would open the door for my promotion to Major ($900/month raise
![]() It's a slow process...promotions and the truck that is!

Looking good Mike. The ram horns came out good. If they don't know any better, i don't think they will notice. Congrats on the soon to come promotion. I know the feeling of not wanting to wait to get the paint on.

Congratulations on the promo! Toby is still waiting for you to drop him a bag of M&M's some day! The exhaust manifolds turned out good!

TRADER! No more Camry? Can I ask, was the rolling pin the deal breaker?
That is a nice truck, though..................it is a Ford.

Well, at least the PA roads and salt won't destroy a good truck.

Re: 68 K-10 SWB build thread - project Money Pit...pics galore!
no promotion yet... just the temp move into a postion that will be coming open for me to interview for... funny how those things work. I should have the best experience in the interviews though
![]() then once/if hired I play the promotion quota game with the state, once someone moves up I get the rank...

I think that rolling pin in the back seat is to hit yourself in the head when you come to realize you bought a f*&d!
