Power comes from a transplanted 472 cubic inch Cadillac V8 engine paired with a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. The Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor feeds the V8, while chrome valve covers and a painted vintage Cadillac breather dress up the engine bay. An aluminum radiator handles cooling duties, and dual exhaust with aftermarket mufflers provides the soundtrack. Power steering makes maneuvering easy and power drum brakes front and rear handle stopping duties, with power assist for easier pedal effort. Coil spring front suspension with shocks and sway bar teams with a solid rear axle featuring leaf springs and shocks.
