Project Big Nasty

[mainermikeyd]

Well I figured after a year into it I would finally start a build thread on my 1985 k10/20. It started its life in AZ that a current member bought off ebay an had it shipped to MA, where he installed the 3/4 ton axles (although upon further inspection they are both ford axles). I saw his post last spring that he was selling it, so after a couple phone calls I was off with the wrecker from work an $1200 later I had a rolling chassis an complete stainless brake line kit from Classic Industries. After pressure-washing the frame some minor sanding, I scuffed the entire frame an sprayed two solid coats of Rustbullet, after setting for 24hrs sprayed close to 5 coats of Acrylic Enamel black, although a little too shiny for my tastes it spent the rest of the summer "dryin an baking" as I like to say(too many projects haha). Last fall I found a solid 98% rust free cab from MS on ebay that I had shipped for a fairly cheap price, before long winter was here an both had to sit due to not having my own garage. Last weekend pulled the cab out at proceeded to remove most of the firewall accessories, flipped it over an degreased and washed the underbelly. Next things on the to do list include scuffing the underside an spraying it with Wurth stonegaurd, installing brake line kit an stainless steal fuel tanks
