Hello!
I just bought this chevy and it needs some work. What old truck doesn't, right?

Well, the previous owner was doing some funky stuff with the wiring so none of the gauges except fuel and spedo work, but they are not eveb accurate. As for the wiring under the hood, i have no idea where the connectors were supposed to go! Amazingly it runs! So i will need some help finding where the sensors are and wiring and such.

Just bought a carb tune up kit and valve cover gaskets as well.
