Yup.

The buyer could choose:

No tu-tone - solid color.
Accent tu-tone - only the upper portion of the cab is painted a secondary color.
Deluxe Tu-Tone - the inside area of the race track moulding is painted a secondary color; the rest the main color.
Combination Tu-Tone - combining the accent & tu-tone to get the effect you see pictured above.

That's the color it was when I bought it. I just had the guy re-do the original (as far as I knew) paint scheme.

Very nice.I had a 78 bronco with a 514 stroker in it 460 with a of set ground crank and 455 buick rod and .060 over 460 pistions and shaved .035 off the top of the pistons because the crank grinder messed ip and offset the crank by that much. it run real strong.
I didn't have much money tied up in the motor.It was somthing like$950.00 total that back in 1987 are 88 I got the artical out of a Hotrod mag.Cald poor mans strokers.

Hey thats pretty cool! I bet you suprised alot of people with that thing, especially in the late 80's, not many Ford strokers built then! Our engine wasn't bad to build, I think around $8000.00 it has aluminum heads and a roller cam, with a SCAT stroker kit.

Oh that is nice. I think I like two-wheel drive pulls more than four wheel drives. All those runs on the same engine?
