for sure check the battery condition first. advance or autozone can load test it for you. if it is ok, the battery and starter cables in these old trucks leaves a lot to be desired. it could very well be the wiring or a tired starter and not the battery. cables are cheap and available at any parts warehouse. i found some new 'hi torque' starters at DB electrical for $40. Been pretty pleased w/the one I got from them for the price.
Thanks for the input. I placed the battery on charge and it wouldn't chare overnight so I,m going to pickup a battery and a new high torque starter sounds like a good purchase anyway.
