Great thoughts and comments. Thanks for looking the photos over.

I spent a few hours looking things over. Then I decided to clean out the interior. I think every mouse in South West VA took residence under the seats, in the seats, under the seats. You get the idea. I picked the seats clean down to the springs, shop vac'ed the interior and rinsed with bleach.

Looked the engine over, very complete and very "original" looking. Look at the updated photos, I'm curious what the large wire coming out of coil is.

I'm going to clean the bed out shortly, then get it inside where I can try to turn the engine over. Not really interested in laying on the cold wet leaf covered ground to find out sooner. Looking forward to getting underneath with it with a creeper and dry concrete.

Also take note of all the old tools I found behine the seat ect. Also a 1957 TV Guide.
