A two-spoke steering wheel with a chrome horn ring sits ahead of a body-color metal dashboard that houses a 110-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and auxiliary gauges. A Mooneyes-branded temperature gauge and inoperable boost pressure gauge are mounted under the dash. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 56k miles, around 100 of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 239ci flathead V8 is said to have been rebuilt approximately two decades ago and features Edelbrock cylinder heads as well as dual two-barrel carburetors with Edmunds air cleaners affixed to a Navarro intake manifold. Additional equipment reportedly include a forged crankshaft, a Crower camshaft, Jahns pistons, and Fenton headers. The electrical system has been converted to 12-volts. An oil leak is noted by the seller.
