72 Cheyenne K10 SWB Numbers Matching

[72 tigger]

One of my favorite builds- could be TOTY in my opinion. Did you add/change anything from the way the truck came from GM?

Thank you for that compliment.

The only real difference from factory are the lift, stereo, stroked the engine to 383 ci, wheels and tires. Also added the hidden hitch, tach and tilt.

Thanks, I think.

I'm with you on the color. Mainly drive black vehicles, but the bronze is absolutely beautiful.

Thank you for the kind compliments.

It sure looks an awful lot like your old K10 finished.

(Will not use the 5x7 speaker in the dash on next build with factory air...will use their 4x10 instead) Retro Sound recommends the 5x7 for factory air, but we had to cut the crap out of to fit.

This Stereo system sounds amazingly good and was able to do it with the stock gas tank still behind the seat.

Great build Mike. I was wondering how you mounted the speakers in the cab corners? Thanks!

Thank you,

It's a blast to drive. Only have a couple minor things to do to finish it. Of course every project or hotrod is never really done.

Thank you very much.

The boys and I tried to build it as nice as possible.

We'll get started on the other 72 soon. It will be named "TY V". So please watch for the build thread under that name in the future.

Wow, your truck turned out awesome. I could see your truck sitting in LMC showroom or Classic Parts of America's showroom.

Thank You Scott,

Either of them would be a nice setting for it. They may not like all the NOS parts used on it. Sure wish the quality of the reproduction parts were manufactured like NOS. I think most of us would pays more for the stuff if the quality was there.

Thank you Rob, appreciate to sentiment.

The K10 looks so good in person.

Love all the builds you guys are working on also. We are big fans of the LS engines. On our next 72 Cheyenne we're think of uses a LS3 with a supercharger. Just trying to decide how I want to build the engine.The boys and I have built a lot of LS vehicles in the past. BTW will be using the NOS tailgate I bought from you on it.

The 383 is really starting to come to life with a little break-in time.

Thank you Justin,

Really like your truck also. Love the name. We have a Grand Daughter named Zoey. Every time I hear that song by Staind it makes my heart happy. Her dad my son Ty (3) used to play the song for her.

Finally got the speaker pictures for you guys. Built the bracket with an angle on top that screwed into the back cab lip. As stated before to the best of my knowledge there are no 4" speaker made with a cover. With our location it is very protected.

Pictures of the original owner's widow with the finished truck. This weekend my son Jordan (5) and I drove the 72 over to her. She was overjoyed with the end product and really glad the truck ended up in our hands. Some tears flowed and happiness was had by all.

[swamp rat]

Thats awesome! Glad you took the time to show her the truck. Class act all the way!
