6cyl w/factory TH350
I just got this 72 Chev truck and noticed how simple and clean the cables, brackets & bellcrank was set up from the factory. I have never had a 250 with a TH350 before. It is a 72 so it uses throttle cable instead of rods. Very smooth.
OH, incidently, it is in a SWB fleetside (leaf spring) from Nevada=no rust...but lots of primer & dents! |

Ahhh yes...another mighty 6 for the world.
Sounds like a nice combo. If my 3 speed ever breaks, I though about putting a T350 behind mine.

I engineered that choke holder myself! The motor runs on about 3 cylinders for about 3 feet...smockin & knockin. I don't think a tuneup is going to save this one. Looks like a body/chassis for sale here.

I have one short fleet box with a real nice TG that I might sell. It has been for sale with a titled SWB rolling chassis for $1,800. The box and TG would be $1,200, if the chassis sells separately. Sorry, I don't need any I6 motors at this time. Sometimes will take some rare or hard to get items in trade.

Hello Frank. Hows it going? Looks like you found another short box. :p
Anyway, whats up with the brown blazer or sub in your second pic? the one behind the yellow storage container? Is it for sale and if so how much? I was just wondering. Landon
