Look what I found

I found this last weekend at Hobby Town USA. I know that modles of our trucks are hard to find so if I come across one for now on im going to grab it up. I just hope I can find time to put it togeather.

They also had a 78 pulling truck there too. If I would have had enough on me at the time I would have got it too.

Well, aww shucks...thanks. :p

On the Dukes of Hazzard, Uncle Jesse's Ford couldn't make up its mind either, some episodes it was a long box, others it was a short box.

Here are two pics from The Fall Guy...one is a 73-80, the other is a 81+.

Yes the real truck was a lwb, but the model was a swb. I have the original kit to prove it...

It says it's an '84, but it has the turn signals in the bumper like an '81-'82

I saw the 73-80 "pulling" truck model in a Hobbytown in Pittsburgh last summer. I should have bought it.
