As far as getting this truck running, parts that my dad (Jake1971) has collected from users on this site and other misc. sources will aid me tremendously (I won't get them for free, though).

For now, Cinco de Mayo is slated for an engine pull. Any ideas on how to separate the torque converter from a locked up engine?

Anyway, here's the VIN plate:
