Are those working stacks on that truck, or is that just for show. Either way I'd still buy it.

buy it and take off the stupid stacks. that isn't a bad price for it. the body looks decent. if you want to swap engines ( i have no clue what kind is in it) i have a 351M, a granny 4 speed, and a NP205 transfer case. All have 5000 miles on a rebuild. came out of my brothers show truck when he went to a built 400. fords are very potient. and 79's are cheap to restore.

I believe LMC truck has a catalog for the Ford, they have one for my '71 Chevy...AWESOME FREE CATALOG. Very detailed. It's almost a shop manual w/ allthe diagrams everywhere.

Just checked the website....your catalog is there.

http://lmctruck.com/

Enjoy the new truck...oldies......but very goodies.

77340 to a business (if it's cheaper that way...)

otherwise, to a residence is alright...

you have the shifter? the crossmember, etc?

whatever i would need to go from my 203 to the 205?

it's in good shape?
