Independent coil springs for the front, and a 4-link with coil springs for the rear along with front power discs and rear power drums are seen. We did see the 2 rearmost body mount bolts on the driver's side have corroded away and need to be replaced. Underneath we meet a mix of matte black paint and patinaed surfaces on the structurally sound undercarriage. Under the hood our eyes are drawn quickly to the added chrome for the valve covers, air cleaner assembly, alternator, and master cylinder cap. Power gets kicked rearwards to a 10-bolt rear axle. Behind this healthy mill is the numbers matching TH350 3-speed automatic transmission. A 4-barrel carburetor is on top and feels the air and fossils through a Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold.

Just above covering the roof is a well preserved and unscathed parchment vinyl top. The tailgate functions fine, and sporty chrome side mirrors are on either side attached to the doors. A taut clean parchment tonneau covers the bed and partially hidden brightwork proves nice framing. The metal bed shows in body matching blue with just a few dings from prior use. Bumpers, front and rear, are looking good and all badging is present and accounted for with an added SS grille badge. Gaps are consistent but some rust bubbling is noted, particularly in the lower panels.
