i found my truck while looking on eBay. I did this for a while as something for fun. One evening, a craigslist post popped up about a truck in Colorado. I clicked on it. Three days later, my wife and i were going to Colorado.
We came home with a 1941 Chevy 3/4-ton truck. I got a lot of flack about taking a day off. I was subbing for a kitchen and bath remodeling place. So I quit my job and went solo.
The truck was used on a farm and had about five acres of dirt in it. It didn't have a wiring harness, so it didn't run.
I didn't want to be a 42 miles-per-hour guy, so the 216 had to go. I wasn't sure what to put in it until my logger friend called. He told me of some 4BT Cummins motors for sale. He needed an answer right then. So, I ended up with one that came with a Borg Warner 4 speed trans as well. I had the engine freshened up and it fits well.
I will add more next time.
