Thamks for looking..On Apr-10-13 at 15:02:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Forgot to mention in my original ad, the truck has a 1950's vacuum "wolf whistle" installed on it with a pull cable control under the dash. The truck includes owner's manual, shop manual and a few extra parts. There is also an optional Mopar heat shield under the carburetor and another above the fuel pump.
