Congrats on the find. I have not seen one of those in years. How about some inside photos?

Hi John, welcome to the forum. That's, for sure, kind of a unique rig.

You asked for overdrive info. A company named Speed Gems makes a conversion kit for 460 to 6R80 modular transmission to replace the C6. Fairly involved process but can be done.
