Can I join your club?
I picked it up today. It was just too good of a deal to pass up!
$300 and 5 miles from the house. It is really not too bad off. Plans include of course some body work, and maybe a diesel.... ![]()

Re: Can I join your club?
By the way it is a 1966 with 52k.
Straight six, 4 speed manual. It has been in a garage for 12 years, before that it was used to haul materials to a jobsite, then parked at the site until it needed to get materials for a new job.

Re: Can I join your club?
Thanks everybody!
First thing is to tear it down and find all of the "invisible rust". I know it needs rockers, cab corners, passenger inner fender, and the drivers side door bottom, but everything else looked pretty good on initial inspection. As of right now I will just give the engine a good prime and some fresh gas and it will probably fire right up, but there may be a diesel in the future if I can find on at the right price. I will start a build thread when I get things moving. My father in law is pretty amped up about this truck so I am sure that he will help me out with the build (like he used to do when he was younger). He is so into it that my wife and I plan on giving it to him when the truck is done.

Re: Can I join your club?
![]() Nope, no powerstroke! I have a neighbor that has has a 6.2 out of a CUCV sitting in his garage for a while, but first I would like to see how well the 292 does because the are kind of bulletproof.

Re: Can I join your club?
Welcome to the brother hood Randy! Nice find! I ran a 292 / 3 on the tree in my '73 C20 longbed step side - what a motor! Great hauler!

Re: Can I join your club?
Cool truck, my 65 C30 has a 292 4spd. I drove it a few miles when I moved. Don't expect to go fast, but it'll haul anything you want to. Mine is currently being used as a parking deck for my 68 Mustang, and I cant even tell it's on there when I move it around.

Re: Can I join your club?
That is a cool truck Tony. I saw just one pic of it a while back and have since wanted to know more about it. What trans is in it?

Re: Can I join your club?
Thanks guys for all of the great comments!
![]() I spent a couple of hours last night pulling plugs, draining old gas, and pre-lubing the motor. That truck fired right up after about 4 seconds of cranking! ![]() I drove it around the yard (its a big yard) and that 292 runs awesome! The brakes are a little grabby, but I think that this is the first thing that I have brought home for under $500 that I could drive within a week! My fater in law is coming by tommorow to take it for a spin and let me know what he thinks.
