Story behind this truck my dad bought it in the US and later took it to mexico and left it there for a little over 30 years. I believe its a macho power wagon? But i am not sure again i am learning also im not sure on what size motor but i am going to provide plenty of pics. I haven't seen a truck in this color from all the searching i have done. If you have any good information please email me : skater_9112@yahoo.com ( very old email but i still use it) I was only able to post a maximum of 3 pictures. Well after going to Mexico the starter was stuck and got a rebuilt one and the motor was trying to turn over moving from left to right but didn't start. I think since its been sitting for 30 yrs, didn't put much gas but small amount on the carburator , or new plugs is what stopped it from completely turning over? Again any help will be appreciated i am lost in direction with this project. So far i know i need to get new tires. I don't know if the motor needs a rebuilt or not since its been sitting for so long what would be your approach to tackle this? Questions i have: * What size motor is this? Whats a good website to get some parts * Is this a macho power wagon * I would like this truck to have a lift but what size tires does this truck usually have? * Anybody that is experienced and can point me in the right direction let me know

looks like a base trailduster. if you could post the ID number or VIN number off of it I can decode what motor it came with....looks like a small block, either a 318 or 360 v-8 engine.... |

thats a trailduster with the top off, not a truck. also it looks to have 32 or 33 inch tires on it already.it's not a macho. but a neat stripe package for sure. it looks to be in great shape. nice find! |

You've got a really cool T.D. there!I'd love to see the tailgate on it to see if it also has some type of stripes on it to! |
