Why the heck are they so expensive? I would think there would have been quite a few that came with V-8's or were they mostly 6's back then?

Not very many V8's installed back then. Most trucks had the 235 I6.

Yes, but what did you pay for them? Most think they are gold.

Very true. It's funny how you stumble on deals when you don't need them

Aren't the big trucks bigger? longer?

I was thinking they were all the same. Most of the big trucks use the same hoods as the pickups don't they?
