I passed on the smaller rusty 1958 3800 truck and went with this truck. This truck will be a food truck with the foodservice going on top of the flatbed. Weight in the bed will be 1-2 tons. I am trying to decide between a 454 or LS 6.0. I have other GM trucks/cars/boats with either LS/SBC/Detroit Diesel. This truck will need to run on e85 so LS swap with a flex-fuel sensor or 454 with bumped up compression and EFI. The seller said that this truck has a 6.72 gear. It is a 2-speed axle. Straight 6 with 4 speed that is coming out if anyone wants one.
