Just found the site and looked like a good place to get/share info & ideas. I recently purchased a fixer-upper 1983 Short Bed K10. I been messing with SBC's since I was old enough to climb under a hood with my dad, but man these Automatic OD Trannies are not like an old Turbo 350-400. I will try and post some pics of the progress on the ole truck I bought as soon as I can. I have modded it to a 1988 Front Clip, and working on the boddy work now. Wont be anything fancy just looking to have a clean little daily driver. The price of diesel is absolutely retarded, and my other truck is a '97 Power Stroke (don't kill me it's my first F O R D & Diesel).......... Look forward to chatting with Y'all.

welcome! My favorite kind of build to watch is a simple daily driven vehicle someone is fixing up just like mine.
