It's also possible that you have a 1982-1986 type in your truck now.

There were a quite a few revisions during 1981 though.

Mine was built 11-26-80.

Judging by the history of the truck, it is most likely original.The truck was purchased by a school, the custodian bought it from them, and I am the third owner.
