Clever title for my '69 C10 bulid AKA Project Carolyn

[awesomedude69]

Lets start from the beginning shall we..Lets see, one of my first memories, is riding with my grandpa in his 67-72 mustard yellow and white C10 with my grandparents slide in camper in the back while they where visiting us in AK..Now fast forwarding a "couple" years and many cars later, i got one, i finally have my C10..and a camper just like Gramps had, minus the color and not the same make of camper, but gosh darn it, i got them both!

So the story i do know about the truck, it has been sitting since '05, the gentleman i got it from said that it needed the new carb (Rochester MonoJet) to be put on it and it should drive..well that's not so true as it always is. when i finally got the truck home i noticed the the carb on the truck looked to be "brand" new, the carb had been rebuild by AutoLine. so i thought, Score! no need to put new carb on, the guy most have forgot that he put it on the truck, Sweet! one less thing to do, so all i had to do was get some fresh gas and a battery, then i would be on my way..Now Ill be the first to admit i don't work on American cars, in fact this is my first American car and first non-German car, i can rebuild a Porsche 356 or 911 engine or change out the rear end on a BMW M5, but im a little lost when it comes to Chevy. I know it is the same principle, but it is completely different parts and way of thinking.

With all this said im 99% sure this rebuilt carb is missing parts and this is why i think so...We got the truck to run but wouldn't idle, so we took the top off the carb and saw that it had had some fuel in it at some point and it dried out and gummed everything up. So after another rebuild (that i did), i installed the carb and this time it was a lot harder to start and really wouldn't idle..when i did the rebuild i noticed that the rebuild kit is for many different years and models, so when it showed a part that i didn't have i just assumed it was for a certain model or year that was not meant for my application..Now after many hours of looking at the World Wide Web, i see that i am missing parts for this carb (i think)...can anyone confirm this or help me with what the hell i did wrong.









Oh! also I "attacked" the hood, drivers door and fender with a little love from a scrubby, hot soapy water and a little WD40 i wanted to see roughly how she'll look when i get some CLR, polish and wax..im going to keep it as original as i can..well, minus it being dropped on the ground and a few engine goodies.




any and all help is appreciated, also I thank you in advance!
