Looks good, I'd sure like to have it myself. If it's in as good of shape as the pictures show then you're well on your way. The fact that it might need the engine rebuild would have deterred me somewhat, but I don't think you're going to be too hurt. Have fun with it.

Welcome to FTE and the 67-72 "Bumpside" forum. 
I run a 460 myself. Traction was my biggest problem. It took the right gearing & some assistance devices, But get 'er right & you'll get 'er GONE!

Dude! That thing is cool. I had a 69 2wd shorty that had a mild 460,Dana 60 rear and bent 3/4 ton beams riding on 33" BFG's it was very fast. In its day (1993) I could eat 5.0 mustangs all day long. Enjoy it!

yes not bad by the pictures..I have a '67 for sale on this site that is similar except my trucks engine does not need a rebuild. Check my ad and it really does get around 12mpg or better.
