Sometimes it had a 3.54 gear, and sometimes 4.10s. Judging by the logbook he kept on the car, he worked on it constantly, and raced it everywhere he went.

Was ordered with the A 35 trailer tow package. That gave you the 054 radiator so my car is at least one part A 12 77 Macho Power Wagon LWB factory 440 70 Coronet 440 N code 3 speed
