ok well I feel stupid....the reason the truck wouldn't crank/start was the start safety switch on the clutch came unhooked...plugged that back in an VROOM started right up...thanks to my dad for pointing out if the plug was hooked or not, Thanks Dad!! Driving it to work tomorrow and I'll bring my camera, then going to pep boys to get a valve cover breather, and a pvc line for the right side valve cover to carb vent hose

Here's an update, the trucks running great, did the first oil change on it, got to replace the lil gasket on the bolt in the front sump of the pan tho, leaks a lil bit. Also the Optima Battery I thought was so great, died. I swapped the rotted out tires/cragers that I had on it and put some deerhoof 14's in the back with 235/70's and black steelies in the front off my old probe, their 195/70/14. Here's a fun driving video and a startup video also :)
