Ok, new here, picked up my new project this past Saturday. Got the short bed Sat morning, it needs a drivers door and bed front panel and some small rust repairs. Found the long bed later the same day after talking to someone "who knew where one like that was for sale". The red short bed has a 302, three speed, no power anything. That's the one I want to build. The long bed, parts truck, has a 302, automatic (c4, I presume), a/c, power brakes and power steering. The only thing I haven't figured out is the gear ratio... deciphering the VIN,as I read it, could be a 3.00 or 3.70. Can anyone tell me from the VIN plate?
Thanks!
