Gotcha Turbopackman,
I just noticed your signature lol nice.

Ill take another look around when i go back up and see if i can find the rest of the grille it could be laying right there. As far as the numbers on the drivers side of the motor, my friend who is a mechanic, crawled under the motor and he said he couldnt see any markings at all. They should be on the drivers side at the top of the motor towards the front right? the motor isnt sitting in the dirt its about a foot off the dirt. When i flashed a light into the 4 holes missing plugs, i could see the nice shiny cylinder heads in 3 of them the 4th was a little rusted. I figure if the 3 that dont have plugs are not rusted the ones with plugs in the holes must be fine....



"I believe the three-pointed star on the grille of the truck indicates that a 6-cylinder engine resides under the hood. Whether it's a Merc or a Ford is a question for a more informed man than I"

~ I would love to prove you right but unfortunately theres no
motor left lol
