If no motor is listed it either had a 250 6 cylinder or a 307 8 cylinder. If your Vin starts with cs its a 250 if it starts with ce its a 307

Thank you!!! I must have had a 307 then, so im good

. And also, do you know the original paint options they had for a 68'? Mine is a bright red, and on the SPID it shows Red/Off-White. I just want to see what that would possibly look like so i can bring my truck back to looking original! Thank you!!!!

I don't know off hand but there's some members here that have loads of original literature that I'm sure will comment. When you get a chance to hop on a computer, post up some pics. This is the most amazing board there is for knowledge and help!
