Picking up this bad boy this weekend for $1500. No rust, underside is looking pretty mint for being a Arkansas/Missouri truck. Anyone have any recommendations for a carb rebuild kit? 22R 5 speed?

Nice truck! Definitely a steal for $1,500.
I used a GP Sorensen kit when I rebuilt the carb on my 1980 20R. Fine quality kit with everything I needed. You can pick one up at your local AutoZone.
Looks to be spray paint actually haha. Paint isn't the best, but honestly that is the least of my worries. I don't mind driving an ugly truck as long as its mechanically sound. Paint will probably be the last stage in this processCongrats on getting the right color! All the cool kids have red trucks/4Runners! Is that Mud all over the sides, or is it growing fungus?? $1500 is a steal for that if it runs and drives!
Trick I learned many years ago to clean a gunked up carb: 50/50 mix of Simple Green and water in a Crock Pot, set on low. Leave it sit over night. It will be sparkly clean in the morning.
