March 25, 2021. I made the trek out to the "local" pull a part wrecking yard. I found several square body trucks, but no K5's. I pulled a fairly nice rust free hood and a much nicer fender (no huge dents and only one small rusty spot). I also nabbed a few odds and ends that I needed for the suburban.
I'm waiting on parts to rebuild the tilt steering column, when they get in, I'm planning on documenting it thoroughly.
Tuts, there were two or three SQB's with manual transmissions on the lot. I should go back and pull a 5 speed out for the burb. I've converted a few "muscle cars" from manual to automatic and viceyversa, it is not too difficult if there is a donor vehicle right there so that one can pull all the parts.
There were a couple of old car bodies out there too. Its sad that they will be shredded soon.
