He only had a few post so i don't think he was a "regular". It He put a 5.0 w/ aluminum heads, E303 cam, and AOD w/ stall and shift kit, and trac-loc w/ 3.50's. It has huge sway bars front and rear and handles like a car. I added the trim, replaced the steering wheel, re-covered the seat, added stereo, swapped carbs, and relocated the fuel tank.

I've had a few bumps w/ healthy big blocks but this truck is by far the most responsive and maybe even a tad quicker and is super fun to drive. She get's lots of compliments.
that's it. he was in southern kansas like wichita or something. i barely missed out on it. lucky you. i would have loved to have it. have fun with it.

He traded it for an '80s model mustang... Fox body style I think. Pretty nice... there is a post with pics about it somewhere.
