It's been a few years, but I remember seeing a '79 D code truck in the classified ads on this site. Just wanting to see if anyone else remembers that? Or possibly has a memory of a '79 factory 440 truck? Thanks in advance for any information!

Can't help with the D truck, but over the years have seen several motorhomes sold as '79-'81 models with 440. Always assumed they were chassis built in -'78 but completed later.
Hope you find one!

I remember seeing a "shorty 440" here but not sure about '79. Been more than one. One I remember was orange, tucked away in a barn, pretty rust free, hadn't been run in long time. Don't remember state. Midwest I believe, but it was a '78.

Weren't 440 trucks over after '78?

Here's a '78 that's been relisted at least once. Factory 440 with NOM.
