Another thing I noticed is that at some point the generator was used as a sinker for ocean fishing and an alternator was installed. Wasn't really thinking about it till it was running and I was looking at the gauges and noticed the "Generator" gauge. Have to just assume wiring was done correctly for now, will look it over next since there are a few wiring things I noticed and will be going through everything. Actually found a set of 3 original cab lights for it since they are broke and missing. Definitely not cheap items, one set of 5 on ebay was almost $500.00, found the set of 3 for a GMC for $170 I think.
Also noticed when I got the kit to rebuild the carb, the tag number ended up giving me a kit for 2 barrel Rottenchester that was all boat applications on the float settings, so I'm guessing the carb is not original. When I rebuilt it, found that one of the venturi's was missing the brass piece to make the spray pattern and the throttle shaft leaks. Though it's not period correct, think I have an old 4 barrel manifold from a 64 that I might put on with an old auto choke quadra-puke with small needles, jets and mediocre hanger (it was on a 327) and maybe throw an HEI on just because. Think I will convert it from canister to spin on oil filter too.
