Thumbs up ROAD TRIP!!! (and a pos parts truck too!)

Anyone wanna place bets on this?

Sunday morning, I plan on hopping in the tow rig (never called it that before) armed with a tow bar, a hand full of tools, and head over to Dayton Ohio, which, granted, is only 60 miles away, but with this untested engine, it's a bit of a roll of the dice.
The plan is to hook up with Biff's brother in law (i think that's the relation) and buy an old POS 69 short step for not much green. Your typical barn find, been sitting there for 11 years, a former inline/3 speed truck, now has the remains of a 327 and Th350... engine blew and was semi disasembled 11 years ago... and has done nothing but collected dust, and probably rat poop.
Would you believe the tires still have air?
Will it be another project to constantly install junk yard motors into?
Will it go into storage for another 11 years untill i can get to it?
Probably not. I'll part this sucker out as fast as I can... although, I think I'll keep the rear fenders...I've been thinking of going daulie on my longhorn one day.

Pics to follow this evening...hopefully booring uneventfull photos... but I'm sure SOMETHING will happen though.
Tail lights and tire smoke... I'm westbound and down
