It's a farm truck. its 35 years old. It's a beater with a heater. And has been a work truck it's entire life.

27+ years on a farm - That's where he started his life. That and taking hiw owners camping with a camper and I suppose hunting & fishing.
3+ years as a wielders work truck. Hauling stock, projects, tools, scrap.
2 year as a shop truck for a wood furniture manufacturing hauling lumber, scrap, logs, you name it.

It's been on Vancouver Island it's entire life, minus camping trips.

No idea how far I am going to take this.

But I have my TH400 transmission rebuild planned out. Also have figure out what I want to do on intake upgrades.

It came with Power King tires - had never heard of them before. Replacing with Hancook AT's as soon as money allows.

Has the 350 cu with the TH400. Dual fuel tanks - fuel gauge is stuck on full for both tanks - selector works fine. 12 both rear end and heavy duty springs. Anyone know what the range is for these tanks?

And it's been taken care off. Have a stack two inches think of it's entire history. No A/C (after -market suggestions). Manual windows & locks. Bench seat. Stock rims (believe they are 16.5 X 6.5 (please correct me if I am wrong).

I'm looking forward to the adventure.
