The replacement 302ci V8 was installed and is feature roller rocker arms sourced from Lunati Power, a CVR Protorque starter, a PerTronix electronic ignition, and a Holley 750cfm carburetor.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a close-ratio four-speed Toploader manual transmission and a Traction-Lok rear axle.
A cooling system flush was completed in 2023, and the engine was most recently serviced with an oil change in 2024.
The Grant woodgrain three-spoke steering wheel frames a replacement 120-mph speedometer and a Sunpro tachometer mounted atop the steering column.
The five-digit odometer was reset at the time of the refurbishment and shows just over 2k miles, with total mileage unknown.
