Is that all you did was re-engine? Surely a pretty truck like that had some other attention. All cases - Nice looking.

It surprises me that you had to go through the engine completely. But I don't think anyone will try to tell you that buying two tons is a cheap hobby. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 14 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Jun 2014 Posts: 14 | Only 53K on it, sat stored in barn for about 8 years, I was driving it home and one of the pistons blew rings apart, cylinder was worn well, just went with reman engine. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 5,096 Crusing in the Passing Lane | | Crusing in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2011 Posts: 5,096 | You are lucky, no amount of $ will fix a rusted truck, now you have a beautiful truck with a good engine- what more could you want!

Very few rust buckets ever get finished. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 2,987 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 2,987 | That's a dandy looking truck!

My '66 has a great engine, and a surface rusted body, LOL.....Actually, my truck is not that bad and will be painted this summer. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 942 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 942 | Beautiful looking truck.
Yeah, as stated a time or two above, I would take a nice truck like that with a shot engine any day.
If you have a nice fresh 292, it will last for many years. They are good engines.
