    I requested a quote night before last. I haven't heard from them yet. There are a few videos on youtube. They look pretty good to me.

    '79 Official race truck?

    Howdy ! Did you have the tailgate panel on ebay recently ? I saw one on there but I felt like it was a little too pricey for me. Post up a pic of yours if you can, and a price too please.I missed one of the wreckers a few years ago, in a little town called Hollister Missouri. It was the real...

    73-79 Fiberglass bed cover - Any ideas ?

    If you can find a brand name and model on the one by your house that would be great. Take a look and see how it fits too if you can.

    73-79 Fiberglass bed cover - Any ideas ?

    So I'd really like to put a fiberglass bed cap on my 79 long wide. I've looked around but I can't find anyone who actually makes one specifically for the 73-79 year models. I'm told that a cover for an 80-96 will fit. Does anyone know if that's true and does anyone have any experience with these...

    '79 Official race truck?

    They are rumored to have existed but I've never even seen a photo of one. I actually spoke to the Ford rep in charge of the 79 Indy program and he confirmed there were a few Pintos with similar stripes and paint. He didn't remember how many and he thought it might have been an area dealer...

    '79 Official race truck?

    The truck was originally a 302 with a C-4. The guy I got it from said it had a late model 302 in it that was junk. He put this 351 and C-6 in it. Certainly not correct or even an option but OK by me. I've restored rigs to concours before. I'll never do it again because it makes you a nervous...

    '79 Official race truck?

    I got my Marti report the other day and it was a great read ! There were 4,225 "Indianapolis Speedway" trucks built in 1979. That's not very many really but it's a lot more than I expected. The report also gave me the dealers name and date of sale. I called the dealer just on a long shot that...

    '79 Official race truck?

    I'm sorry to say that I don't have any of the orange ones Ben. I may have an NOS black inset panel but if I do, it's in the attic and will take me a few days to get to. There was an orange inset panel on ebay recently at a ridiculous price with some small amount of damage. If you need a good...

    Indy truckHello to all of you. I'm a newbie here but I've owned at least one of these trucks for many years. I think maybe I have purchased the truck on the Knoxville ad. I bought it from a guy in Elizabethton a few weeks ago. Is this it ?I've also included a photo of the original sales...
