thanks it needs some tlc but its not the worst ive seen. a bit of rest to repair but frame first. then suspension and brakes, then rear axle and gears. that should keep me busy for a bit. well today i pulled the engine out and found out it is a 1968 283 from mexico, it has a edelbrock high rise intake manifold with a richmond quadrajet 4barrel carb on it. but her new power plant it long and tall. I took some measurements of placement and the cummins will be a tight fit but ill see how it looks after the new front cross member.
