I’ve had the car sitting in the garage overnight and came out in the morning to a very strong gas smell that was starting to find its way to the house.
It looks like there is a gas leak between the carburetor and intake manifold. It drained the little fuel filter container overnight.
Does anyone have a recommendation on a carb rebuild kit?
I’ve included a pic of the fuel leak

Very nice solid truck!
There's a short piece of rubber fuel line under the cab that connects the solid line from the tank to the solid line that runs along the passenger frame rail. That could be the source of your fuel smell if it is cracked and weeping. There is also a large rubber o-ring that seals the fuel tank sender to the tank that could be leaking as well.
