Awesome truck! You really need to restore that beast...and with a tranny like that, you're ready to change the motor mounts and drop in a big block.

Or at least a done-up 360. You have the basis for a Warlock or Li'l Red Express truck there.

Restoration will happen eventually. Getting it mechanically sound and running are first priorities.
No big block. I like unusual motors. The Slant six can be pumped up to 200+ hp with 350+ torque real easy. More than enough for the cruise truck I envision. Suspension has been upgraded. New brakes all the way around.
I have all the parts for power door locks, power windows, stereo upgrade, plus a new wiring harness to get rid of the 40 year old fire hazard under the dash.
