new to this body style

Hey guys I was just stoppin in cause I just got a new toy


the guy was asking 500 for it but I offered him less just for a first offer which was the engine tranny combo and he bit SO i got the truck AND another turbo 350 to go along and 2 power steering pumps in the bed.
It starts and runs but we moved it and now it wont stay running so I am putting my edelbrock on it that I have sitting around tom to see what that does.

Re: new to this body style

yeah I put the carb on it after I got my adapter from autozone and some rubber fuel line and a new ground cable and she purrs like a kitten and even idles. I pulled the old carb off and checked the fuel filter and it was all nasty looking so that didnt help any.
so the plans are to get the passenger headlight working or find out why it wont and then get the front parking lights working and the heater and heater core back in it and a seat cover for it and put my lowering springs in it I have for my 66 and switch out the rear ends and the front discs to 6 lugs so my 66 will all be 5 lug and drive this thing and use it as an actual truck.
