Try running some SEAFOAM through the engine, when she starts to smoke you will locate every exhaust leak in the system. I think it would be best to fix those in along with sealing the cab leaks. A trip or two to the wrecking yards and you might come up with another carb or at least parts to build one good one from the two.

Check the shift linkage grommets where the linkage hooks into the column and on the tranny end, they wear out and the linkages will bind, it's a cheap fix too.
