Nice truck. But it says "solid front axle" and I thought that didn't happen until '85 1/2 or '86. Can't tell from the pics though.

I can tell it's TTB from the photos. So the ad is incorrect.

What I find REALLY interesting is that it has a 400. Ad says it was originally a diesel. Last I checked the wiring harnesses are different, so I would be weary of how this swap was done. Especially considering a 6.9 diesel truck would not have the gaping hole in the crossmember for the oil filter, so unless it has a remote oil filter setup, I wouldn't be surprised if the crossmember has some Florida Man mods to it. Gary knows all about that.

I can't say I would want to touch this truck, but I can definitely say I wouldn't pay more than a few thousand for it.
