Hi!
Yesterday I bought a 65 320 and have some questions on it. By the way, I got her home and later last night she would not start... eeek...
Let me start with some back ground. I bought sunny on Ebay....

It is an absolutely gorgeous truck but has had some modifications. To start with it has an L20 or L18 in it. Driving it home I noticed that when doing 70 on the freeway the engine screemed like it was reving at 8000 RPM. I also have a 73 with an L20 that does not rev that high when doing 70. Do you think that there could be an issue with the transmission or the rear axel not being of the correct gear ratios?
Second issue. The clutch is extremely hard to depress. If I were to drive this truck on a regular basis, I would start to look like I had popeye's left leg and Pee Wee Hermans right. Was this a normal characteristic of these trucks.
All of the brakes seem to work, though not at the same time. This can be disconcerting when the truck lurches to the left beacuse the left front wheel grabbed first. Can I adjust this myself (I have moderate mechanical skills) or should I take it in?
I thank you in advance for any comments or advice that you might give!!!
