Re: 61K10 build

63c-10--I thank the ez runs a 404 all my saws are 404 except the 35A which has a 7/16 or something like that.

Mitch--tk had the 305 in it when i bought it. the reason i know it was a 6 is the ft eng mount was cut off the front and re-welded on the rear of the x-member.

Re: 61K10 build

T.J.---I had the fuse block from another project from a few rears ago. took my old org. harness apart, cut all the sodered wires apart run new if needed and re-raped harness. now everything is on it's own fuse.

Re: 61K10 build

Nice work on those bedsides! Are you running stock leaf springs on your K10? I really like the stance of the pic of the rear. It shows good clearance!
I had mine rebuilt and opted to stay with the original height & clearances. Hopefully, it'll look that good. If not, I may have to go back and add a leaf.

Re: 61K10 build

I agree, nice work on the bedsides. I still need to find some of the e-z-steps for the fleetside. They are scares when looking for them and everywhere when I didn't have a fleetside.

Re: 61K10 build

I gotta check the data tag on my '62. I'm hoping it's a 703(Neptune green) color instead of the 503 (Glenwood green). I like it a lot better.

Re: 61K10 build

everything is color sanded and buffed. being outside and not a painter, some orange peel needed to be removed. there are some small waves--tiny dents that i missed. good enough for me.

Mitch-- the neptune is hard to take pic's of, it changes color somewhat with different light on it.

That's exactly the way they came factory too! lol I don't think they were painted like they are nowadays. But mine will be the same as well. I'm not going for a $10K paintjob. Just something that looks good rolling by.
