Got myself a 74
Picked up this 74 custom the other day. Its soild for NY. Gotta do rockers and corners but thats really all. It was a 3 on the tree put someone moved it to the floor.
Inline 6 250 with 130k. Anyone have any dealings with the 250 before? This is my first 6cyl in a square and am just wondering if I should be on the look out for, thanks

Re: Got myself a 74
nice truck.
Inline 6 engines are virtually indestructable...keep the six and enjoy driving the truck!

I think I am going to put a slider in the back window though. I love the steering wheel. My 75 never had the orginial wheel some I happy this one does.

Re: Got myself a 74
I have a '78 with a 250. Mine has 3.73's in the back. It had three on the tree, until i put in 5 on da flo'. I thought the column shift was cool, but the ratios in the trans are unsuited to use in urban areas. Maybe in Rural Georgia 40 years ago the 3 speed was sufficient, but not today. The T5 I put in is from an '83 camaro, and it whines a little in 3rd gear, and has notchy shifts, but so far so good. You won't set any land speed records with the 250, but for a cruiser, it's fine. I added power steering to mine to...the power steering and the 5 speed really make it tolerable as a daily driver. My mpg went from like 12 to 15 in mixed driving, and as much as 17 on the highway.
