Welcome to the Stovebolt Fiftyfifty. You are now home. You'll spend more time here with great folks than anywhere else on the web.
Had a 50 once myself back in the 70's. You made a good choice. The parts for an AD pickup are easier to find since a lot of the parts interchange over the years.

Sounds as though someones misfortune is your good luck. Unless the truck is in pieces I'd recommend getting it running, and stopping, and let it talk to you before you make any rash decisions. On the other hand if its all torn apart then you need to "do it once and do it right". Its just more fun to drive and work on them than look at them for years before going for a ride.

Good luck and looking forward to some pics......oh, just be sure to ask your questions in the most appropiate forum for maximizing your answers from those that have "been there,done that"

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
