Very nice collection and building! Oh, so you have Joe to thank for finding you all the pristine trucks? :lol: He sure has a knack for finding them.

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
Thanks for the info JT, very nice Joe

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
Thanks to fellow member 1320 we have a correct seat cover in route for the 71! With pretty much every vendor having covers on back order it was a stroke of good luck to get one bought. Another piece to the puzzle checked off the list!

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
That's great JT, can't wait to see the seat cover in there, I need to do mine eventually.

Finally got around to getting the seat back in the truck with the help of some really good friends a few weeks ago. Then a nice Sunday cruise to round out a great Mother’s Day weekend.

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
The truck looks great, and I like all three generations you have - a lot. if that was my place I think I would sleep out there. There are three beds after all, plus a borrowed one, what more could you want?

Don’t have a lot to update on but we did take the truck to c10s in the park in Waxahachie Texas and had an absolute blast. Got a set of new 285/75s on the freshly powered coated wheels on the truck just in time for the show!

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
I was at the c10s in the park and got to meet JT and see this truck in person. That is an very nice looking truck.

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
Awesome truck!

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
Yes, what he said ^^^^

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
That is one nice truck. Growing up and living in East Texas all my life. I'd bet that I have never seen more than a half a dozen K Model trucks.

Been making some slow progress on the motor swap. I have spent a lot of time here on the forum researching and trying to address all the little details that were not correct under the hood while I’m in here. Obviously I’m like everyone else and only want to do this once. When I get some time in the coming week I’m going to push the truck outside and power wash the engine bay. I’m somewhat concerned about destroying the grease pencil markings on the firewall. Still up in the air on what procedure would be best to retain all markings. Once power washed I am going to move onto paint. I have a whole bunch of items going out for powder coat this week. This is a long slow process especially when on a tight budget. But I truly believe it will be worth it in the end. Stay tuned more updates to come.

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
Josh, I think as long as you don't use aggressive brake clean or any mineral spirits based cleaner, you should be ok with the chalk markings. Is going back to ram horns one of your changes? The gear vendors sure will make it nice to drive.

Re: 1971 Cheyenne K20
beautiful truck, sure makes me miss my 72 super 4x4. :metal::chevy:

I’ll be the first to admit that im very slow at getting these projects done. Between working overtime, raising my kids and taking care of our homestead I just don’t have a lot of time to dedicate to the truck. BUT I am making progress. I have slowly been getting some components restored. Here are a few pictures of my progress. I am just about done wire wheeling the engine bay. Last thing to do before paint is take off front diff hardware. Also have to pull the hubs apart so I can replace the rotors and paint the calipers and send the dust shields off to be coated. Here’s some update pictures.
