A really rusty biker
So a coupla weeks ago I was talking to a guy at church that has a farm. I asked if he had or knew of someone who might have a Chevy truck with a 261 six.
He said he had a 62 pickup that had that engine, the truck had been stolen and he recovered it. Of course I asked if he would be interested in parting with it. Said he'd think about it.
Last week he tells me he aired up the tires and dug up the title and said he'd bring it on one of his trips to town. Kinda caught me by surprise, I asked what he needed for it and he said he'd probably never do anything with it and told me I could have it, as in give it to me.
At this point I didn't ask about condition or if it were a 1/2 or 3/4 ton etc.
This is what I found when I got home from work. It's a 3/4 Ton long box step side and except for the drivers door it is very straight and a 4 x 4. The gears in my head are already working overtime as to what to do to it. All I wanted was a 261 six. But now....................
