Polar White vs White ?

July 15, 2019, 10:10:48 PM by 440sixpack | Views: 3 | Comments: 0

According to the chart either Polar White or White were available in 1977. does anyone know if this is correct? and if one would be more common as a two tone option?

The chips seem to show the white as the brightest color. I'm not sure which to use. I'm adding a white two tone to my light buckskin K10 which never had it so I don't have a code to use.

Suburban rear heater lines.

July 13, 2019, 09:36:31 PM by 90_suburban | Views: 52 | Comments: 1

What have people done for replacement lines. I don’t really want to run rubber lines down the frame. I still have the factory metal lines but they are really rusty would like to replace them while I have the body off and cleaning the frame up.

I’m in the beginning stages of swapping a 12 valve Cummins into the frame.

All original 78 Big 10

July 12, 2019, 04:09:03 PM by sschifer | Views: 129 | Comments: 5

I thought I would share some photos of my 78. As the title said its a all original 78 big 10 with factory 454. I neighbor farmer owned it and would only use it to tow his boat to the lakes in the spring, back home in the fall and occasional parts run to the local John Deere store. It has just over 30,000 miles and has never seen salt ( and i live in ohio). It truly is a barn find seeing that it has been sitting in one for the past 15 years. Well I cant say all original, I put a new rear bumper on it and the wheels/tires.

Rear window metal work

July 12, 2019, 01:05:37 PM by Cheyenne1010 | Views: 69 | Comments: 1

My name is Robert and I reside in southern California.I'm the owner of a 1973 C10 long bed,350 motor with a 350 turbo trans.so I've been buying new parts for my truck little by little.so the latest part I purchased is the rear window seal.i started to remove the old seal and of course I found rust,some areas are worse then other areas.there are more then a few spots where the metal is really soft,soft enough to push a screwdriver through.
My question is there a panel I can buy to replace those rotted-out sections or is there some kind of procedure to repair the damaged area.the sections that will need repairs I believe it's called a pinch weld,it's the bottom section of the rear window opening.any help with my problem will be very much appreciated.
Thank you fellow squarely truckers
