power master 140 amp alternator
Optima battery
BTF battery box
New belts and hoses
3 Inch exhaust With converter and flowmaster
The conversion was done in may of 2001 in california. With a total for parts and labor a little shy of 12000 dollars. It will pass california emissions. The conversion was done right and not your typical cobbled up backwoods small block conversion.
Have all paper work for the engine conversion and most everything else on the 40 with smog test and all. A binder full.
Have extra misc parts to go with it.
This 40 is made to drive and have fun in. Not perfect but it is damn nice!! Take it trail riding,camping whatever. People will talk your ear off over this thing. Needs cosmetics if you chose to do so. You can and buy it and drive it home. It drives excellent down the road.
This cruiser is an excellent specimen not junk not eat up with rust. These 79-83 models are hard to find especially around here. If you want something you can stick a key in and drive then this is it. Cheap to maintain chevy engine and transmission.
No trades only reason i am selling is
to get something larger to take the family out camping and trail riding. I have already purchased a tacoma from a member on the board.
