This truck is not mine, but I came across it in search and thought someone might appreciate the heads up. Probably not for the purist as it is a 4x2 converted to 4x4, but has just a bit of rust in the usual places and just a few little things that need to be corrected. (sagging headliner, slow transmission drip, etc.) Happy hunting.

Looks nice, did you talk to the seller?

Chris, I did speak with the seller. He is selling for health reasons and is looking to recover some money out of this project. Sounded like he had a lot of toys and is downsizing. If you have specific questions I can try to answer them as I have a laundry list of things I usually ask when calling sellers.

He said he and a friend did the conversion. The running gear is out of a '79, with a Dana 44 in the rear, 3:73 gearing, not 4:10 as listed in the ad. That's all the info I got on the swap.
