Noooooooooo sir!! Last I could tell it ran circa 1993. It had a pack rat nest for awhile so the electrical is trashed. I cleaned up the engine bay from rat poo and tree debree. There is still more cleaning to do. My shop vac died in that process. I don't even know if the motor is still good or not. It needs lots of work hours & $$$$$ but it has sentimental value so it's all worth it.
