I found an all original 1979 rust free shortbed truck. 360 4v, auto.bench seat
I went to the spotters guide but the numbers do not follow.
it has the original factory roll bar holes in the bed, it has remenants of the stripes on the door jambs, the original color is showing through the primer, and the two color tag is still in place on the radiator support in the correct location...but the nmbers do not match the spotters guide.
the numbers are as follows: PY 3441, PZ 3450, and there is a PXF also.
i ran the vin and that is correct.
does anyone have the knowledge to help figure these out.
hope to buy this tomorrow, sunday, if all is correct.
thank you all
