I like it!

The Buick 350 is a very good engine, should have the 400/D-20, front 27a (closed knuckle) rear 44. I have parts for it if needed.

thanks guys, it is pretty cool...i am hoping it will be a fun truck!!
 
chuck, the kid told me it was a chevy 350 and that it was swapped
pretty recently. he did say it had a TH400 trans and the closed knuckle 27...
is there a way to find out exactly what motor it is from the numbers on the block?
if so where would i find them?

Below is the Buick 350 that came as an option in wagons. The distributor on the Buick 350 is in the front, on chevy their in the rear.

It looks as if the paint on your wagon is original and all wagons equipped with the Buick 350 had a badge on the front fenders indicating so (unless it was removed). Otherwise it would have came stock with the 232 which was introduced to the wagons in 1966.

Thanks for the correction, it was 327 (65-early68) the 350 didn't come out until 68.

Edit: If it came with the 327 it should have the badge on the fender
