I figure since the bed is from a 1978 or 1979 Dodge Truck, and the driver's side is either a 78, 79, or 80, I should probably just change the grill and lights as well. Anyone now where I can locate these parts? Thanks

the beds are the same from 75-80.....sheet metal is almost the same...
post a picture of your grille....IIRC your truck had a 79 grille in it....or at least the first time around on ebay

All right here you go also here is the partial VIN W14BE5S06.... Is this an actual Power Wagon?

it is a power wagon....
W= 4x4
1= 1/2 ton model
4= cab and sweptline
B=6001 and heavier GVW
E= 318 2bbl
5= 1975 model year
S= Warren Truck Plant
the next six numbers are the VIN sequence number....
This truck should NOT have a cat converter on it!!!!!!!! considered heavy duty truck by 1975 standards

Awesome, thanks for the info, that was a big help I appreciate it.

Does that truck have a lift kit? and what size tires are those?

Yes the truck has a four inch lift on it, but the rear axle is out of center, so I'm having the truck restored to it's stock height by having the blocks removed from the suspension, I figure I can get a little more lift from some bigger tires, the tires which are currently on the truck look very small, I haven't had enough time to check the size as I only had the truck for a few days and then it was off to the garage for work.
