The engine is mated to a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. This
K5 also features power steering, Vintage Air and power front disc
brakes with a Wilwood master cylinder. It has a 2.5-inch Rough

and the floor and doors are lined with Dynamat sound-deadening
material. It also has a completely restored fiberglass top.
