Looks like a decent deal to me, if the information is legit. Clean it up, fix the fender and drive it. This looks to be a legit one, not something tossed together.

Looks pretty good. Haven't seen many with a black bench, all 4 79's I had were red bench...


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I agree, great chance for someone to get into a LRE. So many are asking crazy money for these. And it's out west so hopefully really solid. If I'm getting one with bench seat I'd prefer the black. Then I'd hunt down a tuff wheel to replace the omni wheel.

Admittedly in an accident.

I wonder what it looks like behind the pass side head lights, Something there is not right


For me to get excited about it. I would prefer a red interior truck.

Its got factory air so that's a plus.

My 78 LRT has the red bench seat interior, and my 79 LRT has the black bucket seats with the center console.
