Figured I'd show my progress thus far since I've had the truck (my flip phone is the only camera we have since my wife broke hers, go figure), replaced the original carb with a new OEM 1945 for now, due to mounting screw problems with the base plate...







Next step is to fix the frontend, a lil out of alignment but still gets on the interstate like a champ. Got a spare 3 spd auto the other day to rebuild for $40, gonna go through it and put new seals, pump, clutches, seals, bearings...and a CB and camper top for the back are in the works too.

Looks like you did a real nice job RoadToad- I painted the engine I dropped in my 83 van the same color

Thanks, I figured the saying was "Paint it blue, call it new!"
