as for the motor it's a 366 tall deck big block truck motor, and the cabs are very different, different (flat) floor, and different firewall. seats different too. the rest of the interior is the same except the medium duty dash pads dont have and trim on the, just the logo. the best place for parts is definitely NAPA. heres our farm truck

I don't think so the tag say's AZ. so I'm guessing not. I took her for a ride today i think she need's some carb. work running very rich it looks to have a elc.choke but the po. put a manual on and its broke so I'm sure that's the issue i know very little about carbs.

Kinda funny you mentioned that, my truck had a electric carb and the po had put a cable choke on it too. What carb do you have? Mine is a 2bbl. I wonder if that was a common problem/fix for them. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info floating around about these trucks so talking to other owners seems to be the only way to learn about them.
