    Dam't Dave, don't overlook the really important stuff. Matching steering wheel, pointy things on wheels, and LIGHTS!

    Yeah, mechanical might lack a bit, but this Baybee is set up with the Can Hauler Accy Package.


    And it looks the part.

    Sure do, want the serial number? I have matching paperwork from a performance shop also that states what it is.. got that back when I put just a measly 60k into the engine alone. It’s a 2004 Detroit with intake swapped to match my air to air, it’s also eld complaint. Just because you see the older intake doesn’t mean YOU know what you’re talking about. Thanks!

    Sure is! I added more photos and info and couldn’t edit the other post. 50K and I’ll do the brakes and you can wait 30 minutes, I can handle the light… I mean serious work for you no problem.

    That's not an 04 buddy, IDGAF what your paperwork says. Old style front covers, old style fuel pump and air compressor, and your valve cover says inj. setting is 78.8mm, which is a 12.7 DDEC III setting.

    Bull #### somebody else

    I don't need to. Post a pic of the ECM, if I'm wrong, I'll apologize and call myself a dumb ###, everyone will know I'm wrong, and you're right.
