But of course, no one is going to mistake this for some nice and stock classic. It makes no efforts to go incognito with that huge power bulge in the lightweight fiberglass hood or the reinforcement bars coming out of the bed.

The mighty motor feeds a hardy Powerglide transmission with a trans brake, 4500 stall, and 1.76 first gear ratio. It connects to a custom aluminum driveshaft with stout 1350 u-joints on its way to the 12-bolt rear end with 4.88 gears.
