I had one of these, and loved it but needed some work. When I got to working on it the outside and inside appearance looked like the vehicle was well taken care of... however it was a severely abused ranch truck. I just couldn't believe how much damage was underneath. At a glance wasn't that bad, but when I got into it there was no way I was going to put that much money into, and I have worked on some seriously trashed rigs. I found out thru a friend the guy I bought it from regretted selling it so I called d him and he was glad to buy it back and pay for all the work I had done on it. I still really like this body style.
You Know a truck is Bad Ass when it looks kinda scary !!!!..my first words were "holy shit !!!" laser straight,......as good or better paint than a 2023 vehicle........... the only thing i find wrong with it is that it is not mine. THANX FOR SHARING WITH US !!!

John Mclaren. '78 deluxe model had square headlights and chrome grill. Standard version had round headlights and non-chrome grill. '79, all had square headlights.
@@jnorvintage WTH is a 580 engine? Driving video, owner stated 514 engine. Likely a "385 series" performance mod engine. I know Jon Kaase offers a 520 cid "385 series" engine. I have one of those in a Ford '66 Fairlane GT
