Get rid of the luke bryan rims, replace with some alcoas or chrome wagon wheels, wrapped in BFG A/Ts, put the proper colored lenses in it (that drives me insane) it would be bad ass.

I love the black with the black and red interior.
 
But it doesn't have an engine
 
They could always try lookin' at it?
 
Also, why is a ford dealership full of rams?

I agree with the rims and some of the lights... I like the black side markers... the front and rear just don’t look right.

I think it would look bad ass if it had the black headlight covers...not the black markers/turns lol

Most the techs/salesman running around lots nowadays probably couldnt tell a 300 from a 460.
 
alot of 400’s in 3/4’s of that era, not sure about 150’s

You could get pretty much any engine in any f-series back then. You could get a 460 in an f-150 back then. The only thing you couldn’t get was a 460 in a 4x4 until the 80’s.
 
None of them could tell a 360 from a 390. ;)
Shit i cant even do that.

Although....i can tell a 351M from a 400.

Being a shortbox 4wd im going to assume factory it had a 302. Who knows now. But i would lay bets its a 460 if its swapped.

360 - 390...
Bring #1 to TDC. Drop a dowel into cyl 1 and mark it. Now drop it into cyl 4 and mark it. The difference is the length of the stroke.
360 - 3.5”
390 - 3.75”
 
Dont bring math into this.
