Cool thanks. Never seen a Warren build sheet. The weirdest place I've found a build sheet was on a 68 Satellite from AZ and the sheet was folded under the pinon snubber on top of the diff. Was there for 30 some years.

Yes please post a pic. I've never seen one for a 72-80 truck including for the ones that my family bought new which I still have one. The more that I think about I've probably owned more like around 50 of these. Heck I have 5 right now. I've had the Equipment Identification some under the hood and some in the glove box lid. Have also seen the option tag under the cowl plate. They can be found in several locations: under the floor mat, under the insulation padding that is under the seat, behind the dash, and the most bazar to me has been in the transmission crossmember. One of the 2 that I have for my LRE has dealer installed undercoating on it, luckily on the backside only. Here's one from my '79 4x4 Roundup pkg. truck: In the transmission cross member or somewhere else stupid underneath is the most common one I've heard before. I haven't seen one for mine yet.

no doubt, but I'd be happy to find a rusted to death one around here. Wanting to do a '70s dash swap in mine. Got a 78 I am parting out, some of the dash stuff is missing now though...

Got a few things done last week before my migraines set in. Gave it a deep cleaning inside and out. Had several things on the shelves that I threw on. LD340 intake and Holley 1850 carb. Fan shroud and overflow bottle. Nicer dash parts. Bed, tailgate and bumper. Different grill. Had some cop car wheels with caps and Cooper 275/60/15 tires. Bought some Cooper 245/60/15 tires for the front which cost more that the truck did, lol. Got some of the small outside mirrors still to put on. It runs pretty good and the motor and tranny don't even leak. The rear end does but it is getting replaced with an 8.75. Got it insured and tagged and am driving it. Have a great time with it. All this is temporary as I'm going to take it apart and rebuild it with many upgrades and new paint.

Good score. How’s your fuel tank. Well it was fine until I found a hole with a plug in the side of it. Truck had a utility bed on it and they drilled a hole into the tank when mounting the bed. But of course I had another one. Downside is a I have 4 sending units but none that work.

I recently bought a former CalTrans (CA DOT) D100 that is safety orange (CalTrans Orange?) and it’s the same orange they are painting their trucks with today. Good score. I’m looking for just a few little parts and would like to run a wishlist by you if you feel like parting with anything or know where any of this can be found.
I need a drivers side front side marker light trim piece. I would also like to find a headliner and radio as well. Any idea if vans or other vehicles had the same radio?

Colorado CDOT trucks such as my 78 are the same color. Sure I'll sell what I don't need. I'll check on the trim piece. Don't have a headliner. What year radio did you need? 72-74 or 75-80?

Well I got to drive it for one day. Drove it all over town and took it home and parked it outside. Went out the next morning to start it and it coughed and sputtered. Would not fire and spit fuel out of the carb. Towed it back to the shop and pulled the valve covers. Has 6 bent push rods two so bad that I can't get them out. Oh well. I have a mild built 360 with X heads that is going in. Just ordered up a set of Hooker headers.

Got the 360 all painted up and ready to install. Pulled the 318 out yesterday. Going to clean and painted the frame in the motor bay tomorrow. Ordered a front seal for the 727 which will be here on Wednesday. I have a line on a 91 van with a 518 tranny that the guy said he'd sell but can't get him off of dead center so hopefully that will happen later.

Have this parts truck that luckily had a 360 in it so I pulled that motor and tranny cause I needed the 360 torque converter and a few other parts. I went ahead and stripped it and another 75 down so I have a pile of parts to use.
