Engine: Stock 1971 302
Drivetrain: Dana 30 front end with 3.50 gears. Standard tranny with 3 on the tree.
Notes: Bought from an elderly man who had it in a barn in north Arkansas. I body lifted it 3", added 32' Buckshot mudders, Completely redid the body with a new paintjob, added a new tailgate and rollbar. I also put in a marine stereo system and duralined the interior. The original engine was bad so I bought a rebuilt stock 1971 302 and dropped that in as well.
