Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
Other than the color, sliding rear window and chrome grill our trucks have the same options. I think the 350, 350 turbo and 3.07 gears are a nice combination. runs out nice on the highway.

Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
I had 32's on my 77 with the sm465. It was kinda a pig with 3.08's but great with 4.10's. Just add fuel. Remember these motors run high rpm's all day long in boats!

Cool new project! Who wouldn't love to have a Blazer just like that red one in the ad with the old goodyears and all. I chuckled at how the air brushed dirt is kinda flying the wrong way off the tires of the rig the rancher's driving in the retouched photo below it.

Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
Wheels and tires are going to look great. I just saw your 1 ton dually in the crew cab thread. You have found some smokin Craigslist deals!

Did you ever get the dually running?

Yes. It runs quite poorly. Really nit sure what the problem is but I haven't had time to properly mess with it.

Any updates? Did you get the tires and wheels on her? Also what is the Chinese brand tires? And is that a repro center cap or a NOS piece? Looks good man!

Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
Very nice, my 78 has that same AC system. I'm hoping to get mine working soon. I pretty much gave away a set of those styled wheels, didn't really know what I had until they were gone.

Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
Still waiting to get the wheels back from powder coat. The center caps are just reproduction from classic parts. They look really good.

Wow those look awesome. What'd it run you if you don't mind me asking? My rattle can job is already chipping on my '91.

Re: 1975 Chevy K10 Scottsdale Rebuild.
$75 per wheel. I'm curious to see how the powder holds up.

Wow. Those tires are crazy cheap, and 32x11.50r15's seem to be getting harder to find. Let us know how they hold up. They don't look cheap.
