Unless the south american produced trucks are way different than north american trucks, this thing is one of the worst resto flips I've seen. Even if half this stuff was correct, I don't think I'd touch it.

79 grille, 76 or earlier cab (in cab fuel tank), strange bumpers / mirrors / air cleaner, automatic w/ manual brake pedal, home made looking wheel wheels in the bed, goofy dash vents is odd places, ya gotta see the throttle linkage to believe it.

I bet a lot of that stuff is original. South American trucks usually didn't incorporate all the changes at the same time as the US did. In Argentina they made the 61-71 truck body style through the late 70s and sold them new into the 80s. They also had a different bed than US trucks.

I don't know what is different about a 79 and 80 grille, but they had that style both years. Is there a paint or bezel difference?
