Thanks guys. It is pretty sweet. It was my Father-in-laws and my wife and I just bought it from him.

I started off on Reddit asking about the engine (5 liter/305) knocking and only running on premium (timing). Then I asked about the driver side door being hard to shut and somebody posted a link over here to a thread about 1/2" pex tubing. Thanks kind stranger. The doors work much better now. So I signed up.

I'll be taking it to my local mechanic to sort the timing and get the AC working next week. Then the week after I have an appointment with the local detail shop to give it a good clean. I'm really digging this truck. :metal:

Here's a couple pics of my current build. I know it's not for everybody, just what i wanted to build now. I call it El Chapo or (The Shorty). Getting real close to the end of the build. Been working on it hard for the last 14 months.

1981 k10. Its a mismash of different trucks, from what i can tell it has a 85ish cab original bed they kept the same grille. Got a newly built 350 from aarons automotive in Springfield, which they are outta business so i don't know exactly whats in it.I got this on a trade for my 93 long bed c1500 w/t with a v6 that had 240k miles(very clean minus the paint issue). He really wanted it.

Got some new shoes for the 81. These are 35 x 12.50 r15 general grabber x3's which are a TRUE 35" tire. 4" lift 15 x 8 wheels with 4.5" backspacing, no rubbing on the street but would offroad, much better to drive on the highway now with 4.10's and no overdrive.
