Thanks Nate Once I get my brothers truck out of my shop I will start turning wrenches on her. I plan on yanking out the motor first.

I am also missing an ignition coil. Maybe I should start listing the stuff I do have. I will keep this posting in mind when I start tearing into the truck. Thanks,

Thanks, I will keep this in mind when I pull the motor.

Thanks Deve, I do not have any starter. The person I got the truck from stripped the motor of the generator, starter, water pump, thermostat housing, and who knows what else. I will have to look which one is cheaper, 6v or 12v starter. I think I have a 3 wire GM alternator on one of my shelves...

Nate, I was planning on only changing out the oil pan and valve cover gaskets. Rebuilding the carburetor and cleaning up the motor and painting it. My only brain strain is too keep it a 6 volt system or convert it too a 12 volt system. At the moment I have to replace everything electrical. It...

Thanks Deve

Nate, Thanks for the kind words and helpful information. I will keep making post. I really like this site!

Thanks! I plan on removing the engine and pulling the oil pan. maybe there will be a better number under there. I really needed all the info to get a water pump, starter, generator/alternator, gasket kit, and carburetor rebuild kit. Along with many other parts. Again, thanks for all your help...

Keep it as original as I can. I want to strip it down and clean everything up. Then put it all back together. I got it too use in my towns parades. Have something to tinker with.

Just to help me think I ain't missing these numbers I went out and removed the distributor and crank case vent. I still see no numbers. Would it be below the ridge, under the area I cleaned up?

Deve, Isn't this picture the same location. as this location in the link you provided me above?

I looked over the article posted above and went to look for the other number on the head. I found it. It says 3701887. I did not like the other plate numbers I posted earlier. Here is an easier to read picture. Looks like I have a 235 motor.

It really bothers me that the code is not there. I went back out and played around some more to ensure I was not missing it. here is a picture that backs what I think. It is covered up.

I pulled off the valve cover and found these numbers. Here is what the the rest of it looks like. Any other locations too pull numbers from? Just attempting to figure out what motor I have.

I found this data plate instead of the numbers you were talking about. Were is the numbers in correlation to this plate? This plate was below and to the right of the distributor and to the left of the fuel pump location.

Thanks for sharing! That was a nice video.

I was short on time yesterday to get that magic number. I will try to get out there in the next few days. Thanks,

The number on the flat on the distributor. Looks like LAA756626 Here is the passenger side of the motor, if it helps. It is jammed inside my shop, not much room to move around it at the moment. Thanks for any help provided.

Thank you Deve, I will look and post pictures of what I find.

The motor is not the original that came with the truck. How can I identify which motor it is? It is missing the starter, generator, water pump, and thermostat housing. Thanks for the reply Bill.
