New to the forum; here's my (future) ride.

Post by Ridgeman »

It's an all original '67 that does need some help to get up and running again. It was running 4 1/2 years ago, but then I got PCS'd to Alaska and had to leave it in Texas... so at least it never got frozen. Any advice/tips on how to get it back up and going would be appreciated. I haven't had as much time as I'd like under the hood, so not very knowledgeable but I'm apt to learn.

Thanks!

Good evening James,

You've found a very nice truck! I love its color, and everybody loves the unusual flareside beds.

As for getting it running again, when you're looking at the truck again, it may be best to start a thread in the Engine forum area with some photos of the engine bay, and a description of its symptoms. You'll get lots of quality guidance that way.
