Very nice! What the specs? Engine, trans, and rear gear?

To each his own but I could do without the bug catcher unless it was poking through the hood and feeding a lung.

Bug catcher will be first thing I change.

Tag says engine is 360. Guy says 390. I will measure soon. PS, PB,
C6 trans. 3.00 rear gear. Classic autosound radio. Edelbrock 4 barrel. All new gaskets, belts, seals, wheels and tires.

Besides the scoop, anything on the to do list? It looks like the PO paid attention to detail.

That truck is gorgeous! I showed my fiance, and she is convinced mine needs to be yellow now...so thanks a lot

Whats the story on those wheels though? Do they have bolt pattern converters? I've never found a set for a 5x5.5 pattern
