Newby from MI
« on: November 02, 2008, 08:14:28 pm »
Hey guys finding a lot of info here which I need for rebuilding my project. Hope to learn a lot!
Here it is 85 SWB k10 350/th350/np203 6"spring/3"body. Plan on swaping a 12 bolt in the rear and keeping the 10 bolt up front and running 36-37's.
What do you think?? Starts but not ready to go on the road yet....

haha Yeah I go up to the dunes a bit... Great times..I'm originally from southern Indiana so once I found the dunes I love it up there... Havent taken the 85 there tho.....

Plans are to get it moving haha.. I really want to be able to make it a descent truck and fix the rust and floor boards...I was going to drop a cummins in it(but not going to) because I cant figure out this carb thing I'm having problems with it... So I'm ganna just keep fix it up and get it running so I can take it down the road someday...

So is it worth it? I try and figure out what all I need to get this thing going and looking and working good. Its going to be a long time because I dont have a lot of funds but I have always wanted a truck the year I was born but what I'm asking is it worth it to drive... Someday when I get to take it down the road is it worth it? Just seems like so much work I have to do to get there...
