Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

Finally found fisher minute mount push plates that will work on the 67-72 chassis. I used a set from a 73-88 Chevy (part #7129) and only had to make one small modification to the passenger side to provide clearance for the leaf spring. I still need to pull them back off, sandblast and paint them. Here is a link to a bunch of photos.

Thanks. If you want to post photos go for it. The only reason I don't put photos directly into the string is I use an iPhone or iPad and rarely fire up the pc. I wish the site allowed a mobile device to upload photos.

Fisher is a brand of snowplow and push plates are the mounting brackets that allow the plow to be installed and removed realitively quickly.

Thanks its a slow process. They are original '67 16.5x6 on 6 lug wheels. I have never seen another set and I got 5 with the '67 chassis i am using. the tires are made by specialty tires of amarica and are actually made in the USA. Here is a link:

I sprayed 2 coats of por-15 and 2 coats of por-15 chassis black on the bottoms of the floor boards and bed. The system is pretty tough but if I find I have any issues developing I will hit it with some undercoating.

I know 3 years isn't so bad. I'm just wishing it would have taken me one year. I put my convertible project on hold for this project and am wishing I had time and money for that one too!
