Re: 69 shop truck
Thanks guys
My order came in from Rock Auto today. Ordered an ACC rubber mat and a carb rebuild kit. Glad I ordered the right mat. THis one goes all the way back to the tank and way up into the dash. It looks like I will have plenty of trimming to do but appears to be nice quality. I forgot to order my 5 gallon bucket of patience for the carb kit though I usually have less than good luck with small parts repair. So far going pretty good but had to post a question in the engine forum about a part that i think should be in there that is not. Will wait till I get some smarter people than I before finishing it up, but it definitely needed pulled apart. I am surprised it ran at all. .

Re: 69 shop truck
Never did learn how to post video here but I got the carb rebuilt, reinstalled and the truck is running pretty good now. Idles on its own and is pretty responsive on the throttle. I may end up converting to cable and get rid of the rod. It feels like it has a sticky spot. Also had a local guy respond to my FB ad looking for a bed and drivers door. He lives about 3 miles from me as the crow flies but have to drive 20-25 miles to get to him because of the river. He said he had a 72 with a bad rear end and did not know if I would be interested in it for parts. It won't be a parts truck but it did come home with me.

Re: 69 shop truck
Nice Find.
The way I would post a video is, I put it on my U tube channel. Then load it here on the site.

Re: 69 shop truck
The rear end was completely out of it and has been sitting on jackstands in his driveway for several years. sp long in fact that the stands had sunk into the blacktop (his wife was real happy about that but not as happy as seeing me load it up ) I went and looked at it in person last week but he could not find the title at the time. He fast tracked one from the DMV and I met back with him this morning. I did not have a 5 lug rear already pulled but had a 6 lug one sitting here and a couple tires. Jack, more stands couple wheel dollies and the dewalt impact made quick work getting it rolling. Took about an hour and 40 minutes from start to having it loaded on the trailer. There was a cars & coffee going on about a mile away so stopped in on my buddy and showed him my find. Have not taken a super close look at it but appears OG paint. I even have a good hood the right color and a nice grill. Rust is minimal. Here is a picture of the pinion that was sitting with the axle.
Still had brand new drums, Shoes and seals sitting on the front seat. Now back to our regularly scheduled red and white programming .

Re: 69 shop truck
I know even less about Utube and don't think I even want to. Spend too much time on the puter now and every time I go on utube I get strung out. I might have been looking for a video of a carb rebuild and before you know it I am sitting watching giraffe's playing badminton

Re: 69 shop truck
Sorry Mark, but it takes hours of forwarding thru next suggested clips to come up with some of the stuff I see on there. It is just amazing the stuff that is posted as well as how it gets associated with the original search. But if I ever do come across it again I will be sure to send you the link
