I need some help with an old Dodge truck.

Fuel pump is shot. New one should arrive thursday. Hooked up a length of soft line as a gravity feed.

Rebuilt the carb and hit starter with jumper cables and she fired right up.

This old girl will just sit and idle until the gas runs out. Almost no smoke.

Its crazy how well it runs. Ive never seen anything like it but ive never worked on a flat head before so maybe this is normal?

I found a front disk break conversion kit for 720.00. Got that en route.

A full new glass, glass trim, glass gaskets and felts kit en route.

New Painless harness en route.

Vaccum to 12V wiper conversion en route.


Gonna need two new front wheels as these are "split rims". Not sure if they are re poped or gonna be custom yet. Anyone know?


Thats about it.

Probably new gauges?.....

Maybe radiator, unsure yet.

Is there a thermostat in that big ole water neck?

All new rubber.
Hoses, belt, lines l, ect.


What else should I be looking at on this old gal?

Thanks again for all your help and advice.
