Uses a B&M ratchet shifter that actually works like they are supposed to., , The paint is Viper blue with bright white stripes. Paint is overall a very nice job showing less than normal amount of wear from daily use. Rear tires are new P295/50-15's mounted on 10" rims, front are P215/60-15's, all mounted on Weld Draglites.

At 65 MPH its effortlessly turning 3000 RPM, running 60+PSI oil pressure and 175 degrees. In town the massive oversized radiator keeps it cool in stop and go parade traffic. Acceleration characteristics from a dead stop are similar to a bottle rocket without the stick. Boils tires with the greatest of ease. Starts easily hot or cold and takes no special skills to operate like a normal truck. This truck has a bunch of eye appeal and generates a lot of attention everywhere you go. Could be considered show quality due to the overall condition and unique combination of little truck/big motor. A true head turner that you wont see 2 of in the same place. This is a fly in/drive home vehicle that could be easily driven long distances comfortably.
