Re: New guy looking to buy first square body project, need advice.

a picture is worth a thousand words but a texas truck is generally rust free so it sounds like a good deal.
You would prolly have to drain all the fuel and change the oil/ filter and add new gas. You should prolly dry crank it a bit as you would a new motor and see where that leads you. You will prolly wind up going for new oil pan and valve cover gaskets too in short order
