Thanks guys! I've found a few things on it that need attention.
I went through the brakes this week. Found a master cylinder mine was missing. A friend had one he took off his years ago. Replaced all the brake lines and hoses, and rebuilt the wheel cylinders. It's got brakes now even had my 11 year old son out there helping me bleed them. He's starting to love the truck!
Now the next step is finding a water pump and getting the radiator fixed. The wiring harness has been cut so that to will need replaced. I'm on the look out for a floor pan and a seat bottom if anyone knows of any.
As for the engine I pulled the pan cleaned out the sludge and made sure the oil tubes weren't plugged. made some plug wires and put some plugs in it because they were all missing. I checked the timing and hooked a temporary fuel take to the carb. The carb seemed to work ok even the accelerator pump worked.
I rigged up a wire to the coil and gave it a go. It would try to fire but not run so I pulled the plugs and squirted some oil in on the pistons to help with compression, put the plugs back in and it fired up for a second. So I squirted the oil in again and she fired up and ran. Now it fires right up. Even got the fuel pump working with out any trouble.
Were do you guys get your tires? The truck has split rims that are 15 inch.
