Newbie UK owner

[IronAndHeart]

Hi guys, looking for a little help.
This is my first "proper" American Truck. 1964 C20 LWB Pickup.
Im trying to find out more about it, and I need some help.

The previous owner told me it was a 350 but I found the original advert in the US (before importing to the previous owner in the UK) and that advert said it was a 327. How do I tell the difference?

This is a link to the original advert I found for it in the states:

http://www.autobia.com/car-detail/c-...537894481.html

It has had the box changed to a two speed auto - which, to be fair runs well.

Does anyone know a good scrap yard, or contact to buy parts from in the states ? A lot of them charge ridiculous shipping, and I just want to not be ripped off.

I love the truck, but she needs a few bits - there is no hand brake at all (E brake), no choke that I can find, the fuel filler neck has perished (I have sorted this temporarily) and the wiring for the lights is all effed up. (No rear lights, and high beam on with one indicator etc)

I wouldnt mind knowing if there is a pdf shop manual floating about ?

Any help gratefully appreciated - I love this truck

Mike
