Bought this a couple months ago. Was originally an Olds 5.7 diesel. At some point it was swapped out for a 1979 model-year 350 cu in (5.7 L) small-block V8, 165 hp. It’s in bad shape so I’m considering swapping it. Just looking for reliability and am on a budget. TH400 trans with 3.07 rear end. Overall condition is very good.

Welcome from the Tarheel State. I like the color combo & the molding still intact. Thanks for sharing.
