My daughter has always known she was getting a project truck for her first vehicle. She had it narrowed down to a mid fifties or 60's model truck. A friend of mine knew about this truck and has been trying to get me to go look at it for a couple of years, but I wasn't ready for a project yet. Now that my daughter is 14 1/2 I figured its time to start the project. Had to tow it home, the carb wasn't getting any gas. Rebuilt the rochester and got it running good enough to park it in the driveway. Now I just need to find somebody who can adjust the carb for me.

I read somewhere about using
CLR to scrub the rust off, so off to dollar general to give her something to do with her afternoon.
Looking forward to a great father daughter project.
