Power is provided by a 4.2L inline-six rated at 110hp from the factory with its two-barrel carburetor and shifted manually by way of a four-speed manual transmission. The engine is reported to be "turn-key" and smooth running along with the factory manual four-wheel-drive system commissioned by Dana as opposed to the optional "Quadra-Trac" full-time systems equipped as standard before 1977.
