if that doesnt work try this http://www.freephoto-i.net/users/373/26587
Its 292ci/muncie 465 4spd/ 3.73 posi fullfloater rear end. heavy duty susp front and rear(I am going to yank the front swaybar off it for my 70 though). Dented to hell, rusty, but not structural yet (have a few years before its dangerous). Has a "hidden" hitch with a 2.5" ball i think. It passes aircare fine, major exhaust leak at the manifold though. one of the 3 bolts is broken, you will have to extrct/replace it to fix it. I broke 3rd gear in it a while back and did a quick rebuild on it (just bearings and a new 3rd gear). Only one tank works, the other has a hole in it and the lines are cut. I have driven this truck pretty hard for a while. I make no promises for how long it will last but what you see is what you get. I certainly wont try to hide anything. Chances are it will be a good truck (for $1000) for a few years yet. BTW it gets around 21mpg no matter what you do with it. Would make a perfect ugly work truck.
