Tim

I love the stance and neat looks!

If it actually had a plow...I might buy it for clearing snow up here Tim. :-)

Who needs a plow, just push it with the bumper...

I saw this offering over on BaT. Looking at the pics of the BaT truck makes me appreciate how untouched mine seems to be.

WOW !!! Absolutely crazy that it never got driven ??? Stunning truck and I'm not a square body guy, but I would drive that.
Remember the Gentleman Jim series they had back then for 2 years ? I came very close to buying the blue one..'78-79, don't remember which year it was, but ended up buying an F150 with custom conversion paint and interior. Sorry to say, that was the last Ford I have ever owned. It was a Lemon, with the dog 400 and main bearing problems.
