    77 K10 LS Swap

    The right rear brake light and right turn signal quit working last Saturday. I figured it was just a bulb, but a new bulb did not fix the problem. After some troubleshooting I figured out that the turn signal switch in the steering column was the problem.

    Dang. Another project followed me home yesterday. 69 Chevelle to go with my 69 C10. This is going to be a long term project, it’s currently nothing but a rolling shell and needs quite a bit of sheet metal work. Luckily, like our trucks, there are lots parts available. Just takes $$.

    Big day at the tire shop. New 35s on the 77 and a new set of tires for the car trailer.

    New bearing arrived from AA today. 77 is all back together and ready to go to work in the morning.

    Transmission has been removed and to no surprise the throw out bearing is wrecked! The one down side is that the bearing is an Advanced Adapter part only. To AAs credit, their customer service is great and a new bearing is on its way.

    Throw out bearing started making a horrendous racket on my way home from work yesterday. I bore scoped it this morning and can see that bearing is coming apart/separating from the bear shell. Oh BTW, it’s a special part from Advance Adapter and it’s back ordered! The tech I spoke to yesterday...

    Years ago my dad gave me this 1928 Chevy emblem. Found in a box of stuff today. Mounted in my 69 so dad can ride along.

    Just rolled over 50k miles on the 77 since the 5.3/nv4500 swap. Best thing I could have done to the truck. Except maybe a turbo . Oh! Add that the list of upgrades for the 69.

    Turns out the 5 lug axles are in good shape. I will use them when I convert from 6 lug to 5.

    Here are a couple pics of the 69 with the wipe on clear applied. The hood kept streaking so I sprayed a 3rd coat it. Much happier with the spray results.

    Update on shine juice. Ends up curing dry but tacky, think tack cloth. Looks good when clean but dust clings to it so it needs to be washed more often. Having used the wipe on clear on my 69 I can see the side by side comparison. I like the wipe on clear much better. Keep in mind the shine...
