I picked up this 75 3/4 ton a few weeks ago. Rusty as heck, but runs great!

It was used on the farm and the interior is just about perfect and everything works, horn, windshield washer, dash lights, door locks!!

I just put in the new upholstery.

Motor is strong, no leaks only downside is no power steering, but for $600 I can't complain.

Everything but the volt gauge. I pulled the door panels off today and greased the gears and rollers in the window regulators and they work great now.

Re: How about some pics of 73-87 Long Beds?
 
sound good what is the compression ie does it have flat top pistons or dished also what is the cylinder head you have on it I ask because you really dont need high voulme oil pump on a 350 with higher compression
