That is a nice truck and the real bidders must be sand bagging right now. It would be nice if you could get it at a decent price.

The first thing you'll want to do is install an overdrive trans. A shop I worked at in the 80's had one just like it for a shop truck and it didn't mater if it was empty or overloaded, it got 8 mpg with that carbureted 454 and 4.10 gears.
