We got one in the very early 70's for loaner when this town still had NAS Chase Feild, it was better truck than the 68 1/2 GMC 327 we had, it got great milage, ran up to 85 real fast and was very light and did not get stuck in the blow sand, it was 2 wd 3/4 n had some kind of posi in it i am thinking, wish one could still buy one, KISS principle just like Early Powerwagons, they were classics off the assembly line, i think they had a 2.6 6 cylinder and 4 or 5 speed in it, chevy or ford dodge has never made anything in this size that good, there are still transmigrntes hauling every Yota 4x4 and 2x2 they can find at the weekly autions in San Antonio Dallas Austin Houston to resell in Central and South America, they know value in these older 4x4 and2wd trucks, lol try bidding against them at the auction for just a older 80's beater toyo 4x4 and u will see what i mean...They would buy FFPW's if ny ever came up amymore.
