The replacement 350ci V8 was installed and is equipped with a Weiand intake manifold, Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, an aluminum radiator, finned valve covers, and an ACCEL HEI distributor. Sanderson headers and a Detroit Speed stainless-steel fuel tank was fitted. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive along with a Ford 9″ rear end with Moser axles.
The body was repainted red around two decades ago and features a bed tonneau cover. LED headlights with red halos have been added, and the truck is equipped with one-piece bumpers, a front grille guard, tinted windows, a wraparound windshield, a cargo floor mat, and a dual exhaust system that exits behind each rear wheel.
The 15″ Halibrand-style wheels wear faux knock-off spinners and Cooper Cobra tires. The truck is equipped with a Classic Performance Products power steering box and power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes that reportedly feature four-piston Corvette front calipers and Ford rear units. Boxed trailing arms and a front sway bar have also been added.
The bench seat is trimmed in red leather and complimented by color-coordinated Impala-style door panels. Interior equipment includes air conditioning, rubber floor mats, a dome light, sun visors, lap belts, and a vintage-look AM/FM stereo wired to a 10-disc CD changer. The Holley Sniper EFI digital control interface is mounted on the dashboard beneath the radio.
The smaller-diameter steering wheel fronts aftermarket white instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph GPS-based speedometer flanked by readouts for voltage, fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature.
The digital odometer shows 33k miles, total mileage is unknown.
