The asking price might seem a bit high...but I think this is a fair buy. The runner's been updated to V8 power, a car you can now drive anywhere with repair parts available at any auto parts store, and the green car is equipped with the rare stick O/D option. Clean the green one up and get it runnable and one could recoup a fair share of the investment.

I am, of course, excluding what it would take to get them home for those of us east of the Mississippi...

How do you know the green car has a standard transmission?

Here we see even more 54's.  I think all 54's are still with us.

One way to tell is you can see the overdrive relay plug on the under-the-hood shot.
