Like a champ. Does leak a little oil from some gaskets so a replacement is coming up. the dash is shot so I ordered a cap for it. The interior is perfect except for a rip in the drivers side of the seat, so I'll recover that as well.. Whats the best place for a gasket kit?

Rock Auto has any and every gasket you will need. Ebay has them too, possibly a little cheaper if you are on a budget.

Nice looking truck. My first rig was a 77 LUV shortbed in blue. One of these days I'll get around to bringing it back to life. :)
