BUT THE MOTOR SHOULD ALONG WITH THE CARB (THAT IS NEW ) WIRES PLUGS , DISTRIBUTOR , BRAKES. NEED TO BE GONE TROUGHT AS IT HAS BEED SITTING FOR 8 YEARS NOW . HERE IS THE STORY WITH THE CAMEO .I GAVE THE CAMEO TO A FRIEND TO KEEP HIM BUSY .HEALTH REASONS ,BUT HE GOT WORSE AND PASSED AWAY . SO IT CAME BACK TO ME. HE NEVER BOUGHT IT . SO THE TITLE IS CLEAR AND STILL FROM 1993 WHEN I PUTCHASED IT IN LAKE ELSINORE CA . THE TRUCK WAS STARTED TO BE PAINTED 80 YEARS AGO BUT HE WAS SLOWER THAN EVER . THE TRUCK NEVER SAW THE FINISHED PAINT AS I HAD TO GO GET IT .
HE PAINTED THE DOORS OFF THE TRUCK , BUT I DO NOT THINK IT WAS THE SAME PAINT THAT I GAVE HIM . IT WAS A MARINE US PAINT AWGRIP . A VERY GOOD QUALITY MARINE URETHANE ENAMEL.
