no gold box, but you have to deal with the smog pmup, charcol canister, upgraded fuel evaparator, and about 10 more fuel lines coming out of the tank among other "fun" emmisions things. Good score, BTW:D

Are those Canada specific things? My 78 wasn't originally equipped with a smog pump, and it's my undrestanding that only California and special "smog restricted" vehicles were equipped with them.

Having grown up near the canadian border in NH, I kinda knew that. That's why I asked. ;)

I like the T-handle on the cab top. So now the squeeky rear hatch can be right next to your head instead of 5 feet away.
