Are you using the newer style gauge cluster in your swap?

First observation is how neat and clean it looks under that hood. I'd appreciate a few more details though. I have seen/heard "Rocket" before and know that it relates to Oldsmobile, beyond that? little before my time.

I am very intrigued by this truck. I did some searching and could not find any information on Olds trucks after the 30's. I also found that the Rocket line of engines were discontinued in '77. Real or not, it is still a cool truck.

Yeah...I'd like to know more as well. I'm coming up with 1965-1967 for the Super Rocket engine, and I can't find a thing about a Oldsmobile full size pickup from the 80's.
