How do I get my truck going? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

OK, I bought the truck for 500 and it doesnt run. I am not to sure what I should do. I was going to pull the starter see if it is good (tries to turn over but wont). If it is I could put it back on and see if she will crank. Since it wont turn over now I cant do a compression test, so I was thinking of doing a leak down test see if the cyliners hold pressure. If it is something pretty serious wrong, I can buy a used motor (good comp and everything) for 550 put that in and hopefully sell it for around 3000. What do you guys think, thanks for any help
