58 GMC step side

Saved another!! This truck had been sitting for 14 years, belonged to guys dad I bought it from, he brought it to Tennessee from Ca. back in 1989. Says it has a 12 1/2 to one compression 350 in it with a radical cam. hasnt ran in 14 years though. My bets are its trashed but im going to try to smell smoke before I pull it out. Truck is very solid, floors arent even rusted out. Dont know what Ill do with it but its part of my fleet for the time being!!

Re: 58 GMC step side

No more pics yet but if you can picture a small block Chevy engine, intake covered with some of the south's biggest rat turds then there's your picture. nothing special about this engine, although after cleaning the points a squirt of starting fluid then a coke bottle with gas that baby fired right up and ran as long as I bottle fed it!! Now the work starts if I don't sell it first....
