I'm in Huntington Beach and found the truck at the Pomona swap meet. Original owner had passed on and the truck had sat for something like 3 years. It's got its 352 with an automatic transmission. To get it to run right, I had to rebuild the carb and put in a rebuilt stock distributor. The air Diverter valve was bad and I found a used one on EBay that works fine. Brake hoses were in need of attention and so I replaced them along with the metal lines. The proportioning valve was stuck, too. It still needs an emergency brake cable which I bought off of a vendor. Just got to try and run the cable and hook it up. Steering is too loose and so a new rag joint needs to go in.
The truck's now running pretty good.

Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too [censored]' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know?..And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, [censored] YOU TOO! - Lt Col. Frank Slade
