Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum and glad to see it out here. I bought a 76 K10 Cheyanne this past summer as a retirement project. And it is definitely a project. I had it brought home on a flat bed as i didn't know anything about it. I've driven it maybe 10 miles at no more that 40mph. After pulling things apart that was a wise call. I think like so many of these trucks, this had been used almost to death. The bolts in about everything were falling out or rusted solid. Engine, Trans, and transfer case rebuilt and in the process of putting back together now. It's a fun project but i do have my throw up the arms and walk away days! I grew up driving these trucks and am looking forward to some back roads with this one.

Welcome from Far north NorCal! Yes digging in and taking things apart can be frustrating as well as putting it back together.
