The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk So, onto the parts buying......

Yeah, achipmunk, I was sort of thinking that too, and I appreciate the offer, you know I'll take everything I need that I can get! I don't know when I can get the starter fixed IF it is fixable, and after that there's the matter of the distributor points that don't seem to want to work. Tabdoo16 pointed me to look at this so that I could just get rid of them and not have to worry about that anymore. If I get those two things straightened out I can work on getting the truck running. I really wish that my brother would do what he said he'd do and take my truck over to my neighbors where they will work on it. After I get it running, which I think that it really will, the engine looks clean and when it turned over there's no knocking noise so if something is bent or bad it's not horrible. After it runs, hopefully the brakes can be fixed quickly and then it's on to hole plugging and all that.
