New Truck Owner Here

[jonathan-m]

Hi everyone,
just thought I'd introduce myself and my truck. My name is Jon, I've owned this '66 for about a month or so now. This truck is actually my first owned vehicle (I am 18, but I wasn't really able to drive a vehicle or get my license until recently because of some major back surgery that I went through for a couple years), so I am very happy and excited to be able to have it and be able to work on it.
I don't know a whole lot about working on older trucks, but I am excited to learn (everyones gotta start somewhere I guess ).

anyway, here is my truck. It has a newish 350 motor in it (has about 9000 miles on it), rebuilt trans., hooker super comp headers, flow master exhaust,power steering, 2in drop spindles, and a hood scoop for good measure .

Its in really good working order, so I figure at least I have a pretty good base to start learning from. The biggest thing that needs to be fixed right now is the gas gauge. The previous owner installed a gas tank under the bed of the truck, which worked out just fine except that the gas guage no longer works for it. This'll be my first project for sure ( I ran it out of gas once already haha).




Thanks for looking!


Jon
