Yea, I guess I should post a few pics of the truck... I'll have to take some tomorrow when the sun's out. Surely someone wants to look at the rust bucket I fell in love with.
After doing alot of internet searching, I'm 75% sure it's a New Process A833. I'm going to crawl under it again tomorrow to see.
One thing is for sure, the truck is mean! It's funny how the same engine in this truck is more alive than it was in the 71 with the auto. And, even though I now have a 4x4 with 33 inch tires and 4.10 gears, the mileage is BETTER than it was in the 71 with highway gears and normal tires (makes me wonder if something was wrong with the tranny in the 71).
At any rate, aside from the noisy 4th gear, I kinda like the way the truck is set up.
