My 1963 K20 Stepside - Going to be lots of questions ....
Recently I picked up a pretty original 1963 Chevy K20 stepside in pretty good overall condition. My overall plans for the truck are to retain/restore it as much as possible while keeping the original looks.
Highlights: -Think it was bought for a power company in 1963 -Has a winch that is driven by a PTO connected to the transmission -Has a power inverter installed in the engine bay -292 Inline 6 -4 on the floor (not sure what model) -Transfer Case (not sure what model) -Closed knuckle Dana 44 front end -Eaton rear end -Some sort of aftermarket wheel lock. Will post more data on this later to figure out what it is and how it works. -Original glass all around, but will need a new windshield at some point -Mirrors aren't original, but I like them I do have some immediate questions as I've never owned a vehicle this old and I want to make sure I keep it in good running condition. -Should I be running ethanol free gas with the carburetor? -Do I need any additives for the fuel? -Where are the grease points for the drive train? -Do I need a special oil with more additives? |
