Re: '66 GMC BBW w/351E and Factory Buckets

Well, I was going to get some pinstriping done on the truck for my birthday, but as I was driving her to the car wash, she died. After losing power and feeling really sluggish I let off of the gas and it just quietly died while cruising at about 50. I coast to a stop and try to start it, nothing. I figured the alternator had finally given up so we tow her home, replace the alt. with a spare one we had, charged it up, and tried it again. Nothing. The starter was trying but the motor wouldn't turn. So I tried to turn the crank with a ratchet and a 18" cheater... It won't budge at all!! So the truck is back in the back yard with a frozen motor until we can look into what's going on...
