It's all stock, right down to the solid front axle. It's the front axle design that has me most worried. I've seen other old trucks go into a ' death-rattle' shake, with solid front axles. I want to cruise the highways at 70+mph. on rare occasions. I'm allready converting the brakes to the more safe,dual resivore type. 3-point safety belts are going in to. New radial tires on steel rims are allready mounted. It's a factory 292w/ granny 4-spd.being updated to a 351windsor w/4-spd auto.
