Update on my '73 flare side

So I got her fired up on a 5gal jerry can. Changed oil n filter. Hooked main tank back up with electric fuel pump. Running well at idle, smoking a bit from drivers side exhaugst.

Need to:
Set timing
Get some gauges working
Tires. The 33s on it are toast. Have a set of 28s w rims I need to dig out And put on so I can get to the local used tire joint and replace the 33s or go 35s.
Get proper filler neck for flare side. One I got with it will not fit, came with a 6x6 hole cut out of the wood in the bed for filler to go thru.

Haven't been doing a lot on her lately due to hanging out with a new girlfriend.
