Seller's notes: "Transmission works ok but could use some attention read the rest for full detail, I have a five speed short bell housing LT77 that I can do a swap for extra $$ this auction however is for the vehicle only the transmission swap is a separate deal completely. brake shoes need R&R and will most likely be sorted before the sale. the door latches are out of adjustment and can be tricky to close but with some finesse and force the work most likely be sorted before sale as well so disregard?I can also tow this vehicle within 1000 miles for a nominal fee to be discussed and paid for separately from the auction"
