The 5.3-liter Vortec V8 was installed in 2023 along with a Champion three-core radiator, American Autowire wiring harness, a red top Optima battery, a 19-gallon fuel tank, and a replacement fuel pump and lines.
Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels through a rebuilt 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission and a rebuilt NP241C transfer case. An Anything Scout LS transmission shift kit was installed, the driveshafts were replaced, and replacement Dana 44 axles are fitted front and rear.
The Rallye-style steering wheel fronts a refurbished suite of instrumentation consisting of a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and gauges for coolant temperature, oil pressure, amperage, and fuel level.
The five-digit odometer shows 18k miles, approximately 500 of which were added since the build was completed. Total mileage is unknown.
