Good looking truck. Does it have a 36 engine? Are the waterpumps on the heads or block? As for tune up, if it runs well, starts well, maybe change plugs but do not mess with the distributor until you have read up on it and there is a true need. If it has a 46-8 engine, the distributor is a little easier to work with.
