Looks very nice Sam. Simon and Simon would have put a huge front bumper on it (I know, I know. Theirs was a '79)!
I got hold of Legendary about the Parchment for my seats. They sent me some samples.

question Sam, this is a pic from the 1980 PW brochure. how come yours has the quad headlights and the brochure Macho has the twin round ones? Quads were an option? I know my 80 RC SE came standard with the quads. awesome truck!

that's what I thought. always makes me think how funny it was Chrysler made something as simple as headlight style an option in 79-80 rather that just changing all Dodge trucks to the quads in 79. And I think of the Macho package as a higher end trim than an SE so it would seem it would of gotten the quads standard. Just pondering this stuff as we all do on these Mopars! Thanks! Once again, beautiful truck, brings me back to my high school days when these trucks were new.

Very nice build there. When it's done, you need a "formation" picture with the Macho surrounded by the Palominos!
