    77 K10 LS Swap

    Blower motor quit working on high. I found that the 3 pin connector going to the blower motor relay had melted. I replaced the relay and the connector, fan now works fine. I did open the old relay and found that it had a bad connection on the coil.

    77 K10 LS Swap

    77 has been running great. Well over 30k on it now. 57 was returned to by brother Memorial Day, he was very pleased with the work that had been done. Still hope to get it back from him one day.

    57 Chevy Truck Do Over

    Looks pretty good after a bath. Tried to put some miles on it today but the carb started to flood out. It appears it sucked up some trash and stuck open a needle valve. Removed the bowls and flushed everything out with carb cleaner. All fixed. Will attempt to put on some miles again tomorrow.

    I purchased an air hammer thinking it would zip the river heads off. Nope, had to cut the river heads off with die grinder, then beat the rest of the rivet out with a hammer and punch.

    The rivets attaching the mounts to the frame were a booger to get out. Not much space to swing a hammer. Will replace them grade 8 bolts.

    Made some progress on the front front light harness. Head lights are complete. Waiting on new turn signal light assemblies to finish up front. Also had time to run the tail light harness to the rear of the truck.
