72 Cheyenne home

Drug my 72 Cheyenne home this weekend. I bought it from a buddy that got it in the late 70’s. Been sitting for probably 20 years. It’s super rusty, I only wanted it because it’s 3/4 ton leaf chassis. Bonus is that it’s a Cheyenne but dressed with all the Super extras minus correct seat. I asked him what happened to the engine he said nothing, its actually a pretty low mileage reman. He told me he just had other vehicles he started driving and he didn’t take care to store it correctly and it’s deteriorated because of that. I checked and it’s not froze up, I only moved it enough to tell. I think I’ll pull the plugs and spray something in the cylinders. I have a nice tank I can toss in, I’ll change fuel filters and clean out the carb etc etc. Maybe I can get this rust bucket … I mean cool patina truck running.
