Edelbrock Performer intake with Dura shine finish topped off with a 600 CFM Holley carburetor.

A/C Compressor is new polished and plated with clear ceramic and needs a couple hoses to be finished.Chromed New fan blades bolted to new fan clutch. New variable rate half to three quarter ton springs with air shocks over the back axle.The body is real straight with seasoned patina in spots, I wanted to leave the paint as is and give her that sleeper look. The tires have about 1000 miles on them from the previous drive train, there mounted on vintage 70s Craiger wheels. There is very little rust and the pictures show what issues it may have, rocker panels are real solid too as this is a desert truck.The truck is not currently running and will need some wiring to theHolly Red line fuel pump valve adjustment and probable some minor stuff I may have missed. The door hinges swing like new and it drives sooo comfortably that I could fall asleep driving it. This is the 3rd drive train for this great truc, so I'm ready to pass on a great deal an pay it forward. Im sure there is some thing I missed but it will sell as is to the highest bidder after the auction hits its reserve. Don't ask what the reserve is, its not near what I have in the truck.
