Classic Car Overview
Its almost like a new 78 Power Wagon, just about everything on this truck has been redone, rebuilt, or is new! I haven't driven it much since I did all the work and paint, so there's only about 30 miles on the new or rebuilt parts. It has been garaged since the new paint in 2023, paint still looks great, but could use a good buffing. Mechanically its ready to go, I fixed all the mechanical and electrical problems from 40 years of hacks, now everything works, even the glove box light!
The engine was replaced with a long block by the previous owner, so unfortunately the numbers do not match (1972 - 440). The truck was not road worthy when I bought it so the new engine was broke-in, but not driven. When I replaced the carb, intake gaskets, and valve covers, I checked inside the block, its clean and new.
Make me an offer, I need extra room!
Possible partial trade for something, what you got? Please no boats or motorcycles!
