Nice looking patrol listed on Craigslist.... Wonder what the Chevy motor swap looks like under the hood.

I'm going to venture a guess and say it has the original engine, that he looked under the hood and said "That looks like a Chevy straight 6." Since the ad also states the 1969 was the first year the Patrol was imported to North America, they obviously don't know much about it. Also it still has the stock 3 speed trans and transfer, usually someone is going to swap that out too if they swap the engine.
Beyond any hope for intervention

I had the same thought about the engine.
And...What’s the deal with the park brake handle?
It does have the correct mirrors!
