My New Addition To The Fleet

Hey Guys,

I just acquired this truck so it brings me to this section as opposed to the 73/87 section I hang in.

It's a 97 with 64,000 and a 502 crate 5sp, I'm sure I will have a few questions once I get started working a few bugs out of it. But, I have a Lame one now....Is this what they call a extended cab short bed truck ?

I want to purchase a full cover and tonneau for the bed but want to make sure what I have.

















Thanks for looking, Any input is welcomed !
