Got it in at the house, going to get it cleaned up and running again. Pulled it in and out on the starter today LOL
I had to wash it today and make sure nothing was living in it before I brought it to the house
I may fire it up this weekend, but its got open headers. My neighbors may not be that excited about that
Long term plans are unknown, but currently a Street Dominator, +.040 390, Duraspark, headers, and a 280H cam with only about 10K miles on it.
I may just reseal it after sitting so long, or stroke it, or ???? who knows LOL

As a new guy, been surfing a bunch. I saw some things guys are working that I did on this one in the 80's
I'll take some pictures this weekend, but some things done to this one that may interest you are:
- Conversion to dentside F-150 power steering box
- Swap to later model style tie-rod setup
- Poly c-bushing swap
- Duraspark ignition install
- Frame shortening from longbed to shortbed
- Swap to F-600/school bus shift tower for NP 435 (Higher pivot point, then cut / rebent handle for shorter throw)
If anyone has any questions feel free to fire away
