It does look to be one. To bad it wasnt closer I can't afford getting any more shipped. It's a 11 hour drive for me to go pick it up.

it should have "4wd" on the tailgate. The side stripe is similar to the 77-78 macho's, but it is all black... how rusty is it I wonder....

I'm wondering how solid it is? Would be nice to see better pics of it. Most likely it's pretty rusty being from that area.

ramcharger422in3 looks to have sent out a deposite for it. It does seem to be a macho, that was a good eye Sam. The black and white interior sounds really cool.
