Jasper county Texas this truck was found burned and partially unloaded from the previously stolen trailer. They figure both were stolen and the truck with the late model bed should be pretty well recognizable.

Looks like a later engine converted to Carb that would have had an electric pump on it. If it had a backfire the fuel pump would have fed gas up the line until the wiring burned to the point where the pump quit.
