Re: 1980 Chevy C10 - Ugly but Functional

No photos but the projects not dead;

Garage is reorganized so I can finally pull both the Yukon engine and the old 350/th350 in my truck.

Have my wiring harness and PCM, including fan relay harness

Also picked up a 2 position brake switch for proper lockup TC function

Started on some minor body work to make it a little more presentable... still not pretty.

Verified I do NOT in fact have bad axle bearings... but do have a dragging brake drum. Easy enough.

I now have everything I need, minus the driveshaft modifications, to drive this thing under LS power. Hoping to do that mid-Septemberish, now that all the financial stuff is out of the way and I can just get to work. 350/TH350 out this weekend... maybe the Yukon engine if my health holds up. Probably going to just pull the yukon engine and leave the trans for the scrapper unless its easier to pull it all together. Going to pull the core support to get that one out since its only a few bolts and saves me a bunch of headaches.

I'm way behind schedule... but its looking like I'll get it back on the road before snow flies at least.
