The truck was also repowered with a 5.3-liter Vortec V8 backed by a three-speed automatic transmission and converted from rear- to four-wheel drive with a two-speed transfer case as well as 10- and 12-bolt axles.

This example was repainted in Anniversary Gold base/clear coat during the 2010 refurbishment.

Details include full-length side moldings, Longhorn badges over the rear corner markers, and chrome exhaust tips exiting behind the rear wheels.

A receiver hitch is mounted below the rear bumper.

White six-lug 15″ wheels wear chrome beauty rings and bolt-on center caps.

A roll-up tonneau cover protects the cherry wood bed slats, one of which houses the relocated fuel filler.

The truck is equipped with power steering and front disc brakes, and features leaf springs at both ends.

Later-model bucket seats are trimmed in two-tone gray cloth and split by a locking center storage console, and matching carpets line the floors.

Shoulder restraints are equipped for both occupants.

The dash and doors are painted body color, as is an aftermarket enclosure housing a JVC CD player, speakers, and Sunpro auxiliary gauges.
