That is such a nice truck. Awesome find. What tranny is in it? Auto or stick? And do you plan on changing that as well? Any other plans you have for the truck?

Well where u located. I'm removing my 460 and c6, for a 71 Lincoln built 460 and c6, if your close enough I'd let you have the 460 and c6 for helping me get the swap done. The current 460 runs but could use a basic refresh build. And has original motorcraft carb needing a rebuild. That kit is like 20-40 bucks if you know how to do it. That is for the carb the one for the 460 kit isn't much either.
