I'm sure I am limited on pics, I tried to post many more then appears. I have close ups of all BAD areas i mentioned

UPDATE- 5/5/23 A decent, split bench seat core was obtained and installed, better pics of bad floors added, Car lost ALL power, so not currently running. UPDATE 4/27/23 PRICE INCLUDES a new pair of front floor pans and vintage hubcaps(these items cost me much more than i raised the price...

all new premium in the tank- I put this truck on the back burner for a while- I ordered a spark checker that I should have had here a long time ago.

I may have found a fuel problem late this evening that I had completely ruled out, I will be away all day tmrw so warmer Thursday may tell me something. thanx, Crossy

I had two different coils and again absolutely no change- nothing gets hot, wiring is brittle though so I will check that distributor plug. I don't have an extra cap, but I like the drilling a hole idea, but just bought one of those cheap in-line spark view dealys and I saw spark right up...

I wired that flap wide open

no i'm not sure about fuel or ignition , just looking for ideas I may have over looked. Old points ignitions don't havea real hot(blue) cranking spark, and I hope today to get someone to start it and let run while I hold the coil wire off the distributor cap to see if it looses spark, that's the...

exhaust is all new from the manifold donuts back. FREE flowing I might add :-)

ADDITIONALLY- The choke does seem to work as needed, I have continually tweaked it, and looking back it does seem to be a bit worse since I rebuilt the carb, but again it got colder out. Although I know what I’m doing rebuilding a carb, it is spotless inside now, there I always worry about...

Did not know definitively where else to post this , so move if needed. OK so I’m old- I grew up on points & condenser, and one coil for all 8 cylinders. And something called a carburetor. (hey, they still work on lawn mowers!) – Anyway I got this old school mopar Sweptline truck I’m working on...

price on intake to 08070 please. paypal or money order? thanks, Crossy

I know that, but I know how to fix right if they NEED to be there, before I have them coated- thanx, Crossy

I picked these Hooker #5204 up recently, and just wondering why the dents are where they are?- anything I understand the scrapes you can't see on the underside and I have a plan to fix those, but where these dents are has me wondering if I leave them alone? thanx, crossy

That video is definitely telling me it was not in far enough. I noticed the old converter had no weights on it(383) THE Mopar in my brain is coming back to me from my 318 vs. 360 days. )- this trans & converter came from a cast crank 440 so I guess I should knock the weights of the outside too-...

I tried that too before I came here, but I'll go back at it.
