Is there a code on distributor pad? What is the block number? Is this a low mileage truck as it appears to be? I'm assuming its an original engine with original paint, like the rest of truck. '62 was the first year for the availability of the 261 in pickups (regular production option) in the U.S. It would be odd for someone to repaint a 235 green.
