Wow, another super clean truck.
My 1989 roll back came out of New Jersey some years ago and has rust and a gazillion hours on it, but not a lot of miles. The wipers and power window motors are worn out and barely move...
454, carburated...air cleaner has a big sticker proclaiming GM paid a big fee for this not having a throttle body. 4 speed 4.36? gears ? Motor is quite tired and needs a refresh, but I have a "few" other projects ahead of that. As long as it runs and moves, it stays together.

Presently:

Bought this one from my engine builder/race buddy. It was his racer chaser. I bugged him for 14 years before he agreed to sell it.

Currently approaching the quarter-million mile mark.

This was at the NMCA race at Indy last year.

I don't know anything about it beyond what you see in the photo.

That hauler is Bruce Litton’s. Top Fuel driver and owner of Litton Trailer Sales right across from the entrance to Lucas Oil Raceway in Indy. Here it is with a cool 65 Nova on board.
