Factory instrumentation includes a sweeping 140-mph speedometer along with a centrally oriented 6k-rpm tachometer flanked by gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, amperage, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer currently shows 57k miles, with total mileage unknown.
Featuring Rochester mechanical fuel injection, the 283ci V8 was rated by Chevrolet at 283 horsepower when new.
