Well, the bumpers are pretty light, but would work great for protesters!
Also, it had a twin disk clutch/flywheel in it. Before I took it out, it would spin 12.5X36 tires in 3rd gear (6 spd).
Even with hydraulic clutch, the clutch pedal was unbearable with my knee. So I had to change. Single semi metallic was best.
It still runs like a bat out of hell. I ran a new F150 up the over pass the other day... LOL!

Needs a paint job and about $3K to get the interior close to right.
Wolfrace alloy framed sport seats and a rare Raid steering wheel, both circa early 70s.
Twin 40 IDA Webers (sadly) replaced the MFI (Mechanical FI, think- timed pump like on a diesel) system. Another $10k for the system not including the engine rebuild (numbers matching).
So the engine, a 2.4S, is pretty tired as it wasn't always cared for as it should. Even though it ran 130 last time out... Planning on pulling it to rebuild and put a hotrod 3.6 in it. 300hp and 2,200 pounds; it should be riot!
I should be good less a oil hose or two going to the front cooler. All the calipers have been restored, all new rubber lines, brake, fuel, etc. Oh and 6J 16 wheels because 15" tires suck!

...nice '95 z71 cdave. that 6 bolt 4 wheel drive wheel bolt pattern also lets you bolt on any of the newer gm 6 bolt wheels that are all over the place, for easy money. lots of later model factory designs to choose from.
