1966 Chevy Truck 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

I have a truck thats not been started in 20 yrs. After getting it ready. I was working on the carb, and noticed what looked like some anti-freeze in the intake, but NO water in the oil. Could this be the intake gasket? THANKS for any help.

Yes, it could be an intake gasket. It could also be a hose leaking on to the manifold. You will have to pressure test the system to determine the source of the leak. I'm sure the hoses are not in the greatest shape after 20 years either.
