Bought a '73 Goat D100

No tach but won't fire on ether come to think of it.

As said not currently working on the truck but it likely needs freeze plugs at the very least. It the engine comes out my 6.2 700r4 or a 4bt and 5 speed will go in.

The last time I worked on the truck I tried ether with no luck. That day was the last day he worked for me.
 
Pics, was originally orange but rattle canned red

Boatist, welcome.
I never knew that about a tach- good to know.
2500 with pyo rims? Start a thread and tell us about your ride. The more good trucks the better. Remember to fill out your signature with truck details.
 
Tanner, if not firing off starting fluid, you are loosing spark. Iirc there is no points in that. There is a little ignition box mounted on firewall or fender well that feeds the distributor. Think of it as pmd for the spark system, even has the little nickel sized transformer thing like the 2 in a pmd. Put $5 on that sucker and let it ride. Only difference is they almost never go out. Junk yard if you find one.

Also remover that hacked up dodge pic I posted? Get in your truck and flip down the visor. Imagine the visor blocking off all the gauges, and bucket seats 1/4" off the floor. Then figure 4" out of the body height (after my sister took the pic). Omg, what's wrong with me..hahaha
 
Aahhhgg! 1973! Mine was a 78! I glanced and did a Sigmund Froid - thought it was a 78 in my head!

Help me pull my foot out of my mouth.
