The motor is a small block 5.0 Liter with EFI, probably from a Mustang. The trans is the stock 3 speed manual.

A James Duff lift makes room for the 35" Goodyear M/T tires. The running gear is unique, it features a Dana 44 front and rear, air lockers were installed in both differentials.

Custom bumpers and rocker/nerf bars were installed along with a roll cage.

There were no pictures of the motor or interior. See more here
