this morning I did the jambs, hood sides and hit a spot or two I missed under one quarter...all with a small foam roller...worked like a charm...minimal tape necessary...

May is good weather...no bugs(well a few) nice temps and no humidity yet...this is something I did 40 years ago ...and decided to do it again for oldd time sake...also saved a bundle...275 dollars in paint, hardner and some reducer and tape...

it was fun...started at 8 in themorning after wet sanding w/ 400 the night before...only a few runs, nothing a little 600 and some wax wont fix...I do need to get the letter decals for the tailgate...also I lost one of the cab light bezels on the first test ride...I must have un hooked it when I pulled the tape of...that will probbably be harder to fix than anything else...

...and I think its running a bit better too...LOL...

1967 K-20 CST 4 wd 327 ci 4 speed...

all the best...ted

three rools of tape later...boy is tape $$ now...

the letters cleaned up nice...

almost ready...

Wow! Thanks for the inspiration! Looks great!

Just got this little gem, build thread to come at some point
67 4x4 SWB (yeah I know she's got a step side on her now, but i kinda like it that way)

It was originally a park service truck with a six cylinder, speed warning and radio delete. But once taken out of service she sat for quite some time.

Will be a mild build, driver.. Plan is to have her up and running before the weather really changes..
Some stuff already done, but lots to do. I will turn her back into a proper 67 with parts I already have including a set of 67 step side fenders. Since I already have a 2wd 68 SWB in the making, she will most likely remain a stepper.
Will start with a mild 350 and use the current SM 420/T221 and closed knuckle Dana 44 to get things going.

What do you all think?

mud.man.rj · 09-23-2013, 09:49 PM

That 67 K10 stepper is a nice project, kind of like it a stepper and 4x4, of course the standard trans makes it a bit better yet.

70 CST 4X4 · 09-26-2013, 09:27 PM

Getting closer.

mud.man.rj · 09-26-2013, 10:04 PM

Come on, that is sooo nice that it may make people feel bad about their trucks, just a beauty, color and all.

Twisted78SS · 09-27-2013, 10:08 AM

Nice!

Wow, Drew...pretty danged cool! Bringing it to the Monroe so we can poke around it?

Twisted78SS · 09-28-2013, 03:01 AM

That would be fun for sure, just maybe.... I'm already putting an engine together and thinking the closed knuckle front may have to go, other than that it's really just putting it back together (for his winter anyway)..

Either way, I looking forward to the swap meet, and I may be putting the Ochre 71 in the sale lot..

mud.man.rj · 10-12-2013, 08:48 PM

Will be cool to see a crew cab on here, I went to saskatoon Sk Canada, 350 miles from where I live for the summer Cruise weekend and car show on Sunday downtown. About 900 plus of all kinds show up and just when we were parking saw a think 71 crewcab 3/4 ton in med yellow, was a bit unfinished still but first one I have ever seen in person and couldn't find it later, was it ever a cool concept...So waiting for your build. Gm should have made them, well maybe not then everyone would have one.

Keep us posted.. Mudman.

DWilbur · 10-12-2013, 08:52 PM

I have a build thread on my quad cab located here.

Hey DW, I had a look at your build thread, nice work and a "lot" of work too but will sure be worth it. I like the upgraded diffs and the LS swap too, now that a real build. So really watching now with a lot of others, some days I wish I had an LS, well until I fire up my big bock, but still the new tech is a big leap and a good one too.

68_Shortbox · 10-13-2013, 04:49 AM

Here's a family friend's '71 K/20.
