Re: Creamsicle: My 70 K10 SWB is about to get sweeter

Well the truck is finally done (for the most part). I have a few minor things that I want to do to it, but it's drivable now. I still want/need to:
  1. Prime and paint the core support cover and engine cover.
  2. Get the Vintage Air AC system charged. (Done 8/15/20)
  3. Install new door weatherstrips, then put on my door sills.
  4. Need to install front speakers. (Done 8/12/20)

I put about 70 miles on it now since I got it back from my exhaust guy. Taking a few short trips at a time just to make sure I have no issues. My water temp seems to run between 200-205 deg-F, which appears to be normal for a stock 5.3L engine. If anyone has any comments on this let me know.

I finally got it washed today. Boy was it dusty after sitting for about a year and a half, since starting this project.
