You said in your post that the palomino trucks were produced starting in feb of 79 but my mfg date in jan 79




all of the information that I had compiled led me to the earliest know truck being built on feb 1 of 1979. this last july I saw a beyond rusty palomino with a late jan build. It was the first one that I had ever seen that was built before feb. I am probably one of the very few that has multiples of the palomino, and has collected info on them. the prospector broshure is the only one that shows the package in it, and it is dated 3/79.
Now your truck pops up. It blows my theory out of the water....yours may have been pre-production, who knows...chrysler doesn't have any info...
Maybe I shouldn't have posted the info...dunno...
