Interesting details. This truck was radio suppressed and has a lube chart holder. My open cab GMC does not have these gadgets.

That engine does not go with that body. The engine has a "road pipe" to breathe the oil fumes.

If you remove the engine, remove the dist and carb BEFORE you do anything.... You will thank me in the morning!

I thought the engine looked funny, I thought someone dressed it up with diffrent items like the carb, fan , and breather tube.. the block has an army rebuild tag on it... Im shure the rest of it was gone through by civillian mech.
