so some things have happened on this but not much. I did do some more body work, ds rear 1/4 front 1/4 and door, ready for primer then final sand and paint. I do need some work done on rear and front bumpers, lil chips etc.

Big thing we are back to no engine LOL I pulled the 350 from it and put it in my k10 last year or so. I do not know what engine will end up in this as of yet have other things I HAVE to finish up now and do something with, also going to update on k10.

Lol, I can't keep track of which car or truck has which engine. So you've got the engine that was in your dad's truck and you've got the gold engine from your K10. And then that long block that I brought down to you. What's the current status?

I've got 4 sbc's 1 305 gold one, 3 350's the one you brought, which I am considering rebuilding for my truck stockish form mild cam, or the ta with a noisy cam. The 350 that was in my truck and everything else, its a 74 c20 orig. and 4 bolt we picked up and rebuilt in 97, was put in a 76 c10 also white, the og " white truck", then around early 02/03? it came out (we actually hauled it home in dads 86 k10) ad went in that white monte carlo 85 model I had. Then after getting married, needing money, selling the mc, pulled it, put it in dads 84 c10 which was white and blue orig., and had a305 that went in the mc and sold to my bro in law. The 350 stayed in his truck until a few years ago when I pulled it apart, then put it in the ta, pulled and put in my k10, pulled and put on the stand LOL.

the other 350 is the one from my old k1500 88 red fade to black painted obs, I rebuilt it and used dads older style heads he had on the 74 c20 350, which were 2.02 but 76cc, stock rebuilt lower end, and some cam I pciked up barely any lope.

gold 305 is in my k10 for now, to be moveable
