Been looking for a 79 or 80 macho for 3+ years - almost got one from Jeff but it sold before I decided.

This truck was owned by a farmer in Nebraska and stored in a barn for years, then made it's way to South Dakota couple years ago.

It will need resto but is one of the least rusty macho's I've seen/been able to find.

Oh, and it is Citron Green which is pretty rare I think.

#'s matching 360
Bucket seats
Auto
All tags look correct
Under hood equipment label is still there.
47,000 miles (might actually be correct)

Will need to find original wheels for it, has few dents/might need passenger fender, and wish it didn't have all the tonneau cover snaps - but otherwise seems good.

Restoration starting - will be doing a frame off. The current plan is to pull the original 360 for safekeeping and replace with a 360/408 stroker - rest will be restored to original.

Will probably be on the site looking for advice/parts soon :)
