Re: Going to check out new truck tomorrow

- Picked it up
- Needs some engine work
- Exhaust leak - I believe from bad exhaust gasket
- Small Oil leak need to find where
- But besides that - this is to be a weekend trash runner and just something to have fun in.

Here are a few more pics.

- Inline 6 (not sure of size) - I believe if original it would be 250 or 292 - any pointers appreciated.

Nice looking truck, if origional it would be a 250, which looks to be the case due to the short covers on side of block. The 292`s had a taller block.

Yes - grill is going. Want to replace roll pan as well. First is safety upgrades and resolve engine issues. But this will be weekend driver for now. I have my Suburban project to get done before tearing into this.

Not sure - but definetly was repainted at some point. The guy who did the work must have been in a hurry. Never took the plastic bedliner out when he did the work.
