76 K10 chevy
« on: May 13, 2016, 02:43:56 am »
Ok, so I had a very long introduction post that took around 20 minutes to type up and for some reason or another before I could post it I was logged out and lost my work.
 :(
So here is the short version of the original.....

I have a few questions that are stumping me on my truck and decided I should post an introduction to my truck first.

It used to be my dads in the early 90's and after I drove it during high school and blew the engine it sat for 10 years. This is the result of my efforts for the past 2 years. I really wanted a hauler, lake truck etc.

76 k10
fresh rebuilt 350 engine
stock vortech heads
"rv" cam
Flowtech headers and exhaust kit, thrush chambered mufflers
edelbrock 600 cfm
edelbrock rpm intake
BIG 4 row aluminum rad
12 bolt limited slip 10 bolt warn lock outs
part time 203
TH350 shift kit
etc.

This is after I just painted it with kyrlon ultra flat tan, it looked good for a few months but after a year the paint is trashed. I just painted it with blue tractor and implement paint. It could be A LOT better but am ignorant when it comes to painting and learned along the way.

I will be posting a lot of pics I have in the members ride section.

Thanks, I found it at a salvage yard on a 78' tow truck. I offered the owner a aluminum dodge durango wheel I got for free from a friend and 20$ for it. He accepted as long as I pulled it!
Coolest thing about it is that it is Stainless Steel! I stripped it the other day before painting my truck blue, this is how it looks now.
