From the front bumper bolt spacing, it looks like you have the 63 frame which would have been coil springs up front. Still just as easy to swap over to squarebody stuff. These trucks were all 6 lug drum brakes for the half tons
Yeah I bet! It’s a big hood. The front is power disk and power steering. I would like to convert the rear to disc at some point. Right now I will take care of cleaning up the engine bay and maybe a new radio. The truck has a th350 that shifts fine but I do have a 700r4 I might swap in for overdrive
