I'm also replacing the fuel pump, and I need to identify the carburetor to find a good rebuild kit. Any recommendations? There's a number 45 stamped toward the base of the carb, a 28 RP on the side and a 4468 on the bottom.

A photo of the pump.

And I'm guessing this is not the factory fuel filter setup? Any references to the correct parts I need?

And could anyone help me identify the air cleaner? Is it the oil bath filter?

I ripped the rotted wood out of the bed, cleaned up some of the frame and coated it in duplicolors rust barrier

So that's how far I’ve gotten in the first three weeks! My goal is to get the truck running and driving reliably. I want to use it to run errands and go to car meets. Once it's mechanically sound, then I will start working on body repair and eventually make her look nice again. But I wanted a project that I could drive as I go, I didn't want to jump right into a full on restoration. After the brakes and fuel system are done I think she will be ready to start driving. Then I'll change all fluids and filters and ignition tune up and what not. So let me know what you guys think!
