My 46 international k2

My 46 international k2 (Vintage turbo kit page 3!!!)

This is my 46 international pickup on an s10 shortbed frame. I have a year and a half into her so far. I`ve got a lot of plans for her coming up. She will ultimately be lean nasty and fast to boot.

These are the early days in the original garage location. Look at that handsome gentleman hahaha :

 

[Archangel]

Here I moved it out to my uncle`s house to utilize his much better tools and equipment (thats one of his projects in the background of picture one here):

and more of his projects lol:

Finally in his garage (had to beg for the floor space haha):

here is a picture with the original smog headed motor

Here I started my head and cam swap on a built (slightly used) shortblock

 

[Archangel]

Here is how she looks so far today (the photo is generous the truck still has a lot of work to be done)

Hope you enjoyed I`ll be adding more pictures as I find them again (buried in various locations)

Angel,
Thanks for the update. You've sure make some great progress on this truck and I like the flat black paint job. DId you spray it or was in from rattle cans?

[Archangel]

It is sprayed. TSC semi gloss tractor paint It`ll look better soon as my buddy SIC 2706 and I are going to be working on the body and what not for the next few months. It`ll still be resprayed with the same stuff though.
