New to the 67-72 crowd, 67 Stepside

[biohazardbill]

New to the 67-72 crowd, usually hang out in the 60-66. I have seen this truck for several years up the road from me. I have seen it driven all the time too up until recently. Coming home Saturday it was finally for sale. I am 3rd owner. No rust that I could find, just some paint peeling in spots. I picked it up a couple hours ago, drove it home. Runs rough, looks like it has some carb issues. It is not the original motor, motor is from a 72. Guy that sold it to me was 91 and could not drive it anymore with manual steering. He has had it since 1979. The only thing I saw that didnt look original is they have a piece of steel in the bed instead of wood. They did a nice job with that as well, not a hack job.
















This last pic is the base of the carb, it is real wet. Guy said may need a new carb, maybe you guys have some ideas about a quick fix or known issues.



Not sure what to do with it yet other than drive it
