Recently I pulled it in the shop and started the build of the Dream 69 which was inspired by my neighbor's red '70. 1969 was first year the 350 engine and 350 auto trans was available in these trucks, although very few were installed in 4x4s. There were only 1,649 SWB K10s produced in 1969. It was also the first year for the venerable NP205 transfer case. Dream 69 will include these options as well as:
Power Steering
Power Brakes
Old Air A/C
Tach Cluster
Under bed tank
New GM crate 350
'78 disc brake front axle
New gears front and rear
Front Sway Bar
2 inch Rancho lift
New factory correct red paint
My overall goal for the project is to have a stock appearing, rare optioned truck with good drivability.
