Axle locker in differential, original spider gears come boxed. Comes with original rear end gears boxed, and comp cam uninstalled brand new. A/C unit has been detached but is on hand. These are commonly built to $60-$90k cars when built to the 455 Super Duty T/A specs. $15-20k investment will get you there. Believe I am 4th owner. Bought it in the service in 1989 (pictured), has been garaged ever since. very little rust, was Florida car then Cali, KC, then Roswell since 94.

I will provide more photos as we get it out of storage. Has headers, will need new mufflers, exhaust from mufflers back is newly replaced. Exhaust has cut outs ahead of Mufflers.

Also the A/C "unit" consists of the housing unit and condenser that mounts to the firewall, not the A/C compressor or lines.
