Here is a pic of a SWB K1500 I'm building up for my wife's dad. I ended up picking the truck up with a trashed transfer case and blown rearend on the cheap. After getting it home I was checking it out and the 350 in it had rebuilders tags on it and the dash was showing 120k on the odometer. So I ended up swapping the 350 into Jayne my 305 powered shop truck.
Now its rocking the 305 out of Jayne and I've been working my way through getting everything worked out and rolling again. So far I've got the 305 in and running, replaced the transfer case and got another rear end put back in with all the fixings. Heres a pic of all the bits I've gone through to this point.
I still have a long way to go on this one. Right now I'm chasing issues getting the 700r4 shifting. I fear I may have let the magic smoke out of it after breaking a connector off and having dropped the pan to replace it discovered it was very nasty. I'm still hoping the governor is stuck and I can save it, but it looks like I'm going to have to rebuild it.
I also need to fix the steering column and replace the ignition switch as it's all loose and the key sticks on sometimes. I need to flush the transfer case out, bleed the breaks and solder up some of the wiring harness.
There is still a while lot of work to be done on this truck to get it reliable and back to being a DD but I'm getting a little at a time. It's now been almost a year that I've been chipping away at it. Hopefully I'll be getting close on it soon.
