No not an LS, an old 4bt swap. Take up entire payload with the engine and transmission. Then you could blow smog out of your EV truck while saving the planet!
This reminds me of driving this, although I never had the opportunity to drive it over a speed of 45 MPH, I loved it.
Mainly used for driving on the airport ramp, with a few times outside of the airport gates around the airport.
RH Drive and a standard transmission, so you were forced to get used to shifting with the Left Hand.
and getting out of airport gates was a challenge, the normal scan your badge and proceed was not happening as the scanner was on the (normal) drivers side.
So if you wanted out - you had to back out of the gate.
I have actual pics of the truck but cannot locate them, this is a Googled pic of one.
Truly a bare bones truck and absolutely loved it for it's simplicity but again this truck was never used for any heavy duty tow or haul, just simple tooling and equipment.
