I’m the fabricator/welder. Matt, my neighbor and friend (Wicked Wrench Motorsports) is doing the harnesses. He is doing Gen V jeep swaps.

Pulled the LT back out so I can finish welding the mounts and exhaust. Also going to install the harness while it’s out. MUCH easier!

 

[Fastereddie]

That’ll hold

Not 77 K5 project related, but @Fastereddie found this surfing today and I just went and picked it up. Maybe we start a trend of bunk beds...lol This will replace the bed it's sitting on. Rust free with bolts included.

 

[Fastereddie]

Engine is back in(hopefully last time)



Mounted filter/regulator and made lines.

I was over at Performance Muffler last week, and it looks like Joe got himself a square body crew cab that he is doing an LS swap on it.

We setup at Vegas To Reno tech inspection today. Way too hot! The green Media flags are something we came up with last minute for BITD along with the Texas Station marquee race ad artwork. This was our first jumbo billboard style sign work, pretty cool for us.

The 4x4 race vehicles amaze me every time I see them. Been doing the race thing since the early 80's and the level/speed of progress the last few years is mind boggling.

I'll try for race action photos tomorrow.

Too hot and silty to leave the truck, so i didn't get any good pics. I'm uploading a short video now, nothing exciting.
