'76 K5 w/mods - UPDATE - FIRST DRIVE 11/24/09

Wow, awesome work.


Just out of curiosity are you also posting this somewhere else? The verbage gave me that impression.

Thanks! Yes, I have this build thread on www.greatlakes4x4.com but lately the interest in my project has fallen off, so I figured I would take it where everyone digs K5s...

I tried to clean up the info within the posts, but definitely didn't do a good job. Here's the link to the full build thread from start to current--

'76 K5 Coilover front end, cage

Thanks for the comments and compliments and let me know if there's anyting I missed or you want to know about it. I have lots of pics.

I made a bit more progress over last week, thought I would post up some pics for my fellow CK5 brothers

Windshield /\ is in, rear harness bar too, plus I got too good of a deal on a set of 5 36x14.5 swampers and ended up selling ALL my other swampers and came out way ahead.

thank you sir, I'm digging the "new" tires, and I have so much more room in the garage now that I don't have to store 38 and 39" TSLs under the workbench...
 
So what's the latest on this?

I've been slammed lately doing custom vinyl work, getting some HID kits together, and doing a side job for a friend of mine who works for an airbag and seatbelt manufacturer... building a Polaris RZR cage to use for development/promotional as well as testing purposes so they aren't rolling a 12k UTV every time. Fun little project, but time consuming like everything else.

I did get some decals cut and applied to this beast though, and it's amazing how small a K5 makes a 4 foot decal look... pics to come-

Cheers!
 
You've got quite a bit done since I last saw it!

Looking real good.

Mind if I come by for a look when I get back in town?

We'll trade rides... I'll take you through the mud in mine and you take me around the dunes in yours? :haha:
