Is this your truck?

 

[Jeffa]

HI, yes this is my vehicle.

 

[Fast Eddy]

How does it pass smog with an aftermarket carb? Pics of the engine compartment?

 

[Jeffa]

Hi Eddy, here are some more pictures that I took last week, super HD!

Please call me with any questions. Jeff

I'm going to stop asking questions about it passing smog.

Nice looking rig. GLWS.

Caveat emptor.

 

[Spike Strip]

It will not *legally* pass CA smog as pictured, and replacing those missing components will be time consuming and expensive, if one needs to.

If your mechanic put the Weber on, that implies you might still have the stock carb and smog equipment. That would be important to note.

 

[Dedtruk]

Holley carburetor, not Weber ... not that it matters in terms of smog compliance, I guess. So what would it take to make it compliant? Aisin carb (stock, correct year), air cleaner assembly, smog pump and hoses, probably a couple VSVs and related spaghetti, stock exhaust manifold, and the labor to install and tune it all. Anything else? It looks like a clean rig worth the effort and expense, with a price adjustment to reflect that, of course. Just sayin'.

Did you purchase the truck from a guy in Torrance/South Bay ?

And I see it's registered thru July of 2019 -- I want to meet your smog guy

I'm in da Valley.

 

[Jeffa]

Hi Spike, no from a guy here in Los Angeles about 13 years ago. I believe he was the 2nd owner, I was told it was previously used by the Park Service somewhere here in So. Cal.

Hi Mike, sorry I missed your message, please TXT me again or call me any time!

 

[Spike Strip]

I have the original 'Forrest Service' wheels that came off that truck... They are slightly wider versions of the stock steelies the regular dealer models got. I got them from the guy who originally resold all those decommissioned FS vehicles. He said, at the time he sold the trucks, nobody liked or wanted the steel wheels !!

Go figger.

If you live in a region of CA with no biennial check, and the smog check is within 3 months, you could buy and re-title and keep it forever.

Me too.
