Too bad the bed and fenders are missing. Could have been an Express.

I actually shift gears without using the clutch. It is a matter of timing. Slipping out of one gear and gently moving towards the next and feeling when it is ready to mesh. If it grinds you are not allowing the gear speeds to be compatible.

Flush and clean fuel and cooling systems. Go through ignition system, Clean and repack all wheel bearings. Grease everything, Drain and refill all oils. Oil the cylinders.
