Rebuilt 360 (yes, you do get oil on the windscreen when you throw a rod), TF 727, Dana 44 front and Dana 44 rear (usually the AMC 20 was used for this year) NP 229 xfer case, leather seats, electric everything, a/c, rear spoiler/dust deflector, factory mags (235/75/15 tyres) "Grenadine" colour scheme, Edelbrock1405 (manual choke) carb on adaptor plate and jetted 5 stages lean in cruise mode, 1 stage lean in power mode and 2 stages lean on secondaries (works great and no flat spots). Reset rear springs with extra leaf added. (since this photo was taken) Tinting now removed for NZ safety standards.

Future plans: a set of 16 inch 6 stud toyota rims with cross ply 7.50x16 Super All Terrain SATs as a spare set to go playing in. (nothing beats old SATs for traction and indestructibility). Winch behind the bumper, brush guard and front and rear towing points. Reset front springs. Xcountry kit for carb. Performer cam and manifold. Rear diff locker.Possible RH drive conversion.

Ex Kansas, USA, it now resides in Dunedin, Otago, South Island of New Zealand and spends a lot of time in Central Otago on the old gold trails.

The picture taken in Colorado heading up to Independence pass (12000 feet) just out of Aspen)
