Re: Introduction and Short Story

Nice looking truck. Good luck on the trip.

Be sure to check the suction line(s) from the gas tank(s) to the frame pickup. If original, they are end of life by now. They are out of sight and often forgotten about. Stuck by side of road failure.

Check the fill inlet to gas tank hoses. They are near or at EOL as well if original. Not a stuck on the side of the road issue but can result in a bunch of gas sloshing out.

If the heater core is original, be prepared to bypass. It is a PITA to replace but bypassing is simple.

Some provision for a spare tire if a PO lost the original.
