1979 F150 Custom

My son has a 1979 f150 Custom two wheel drive. He "sold" it to a friend for $2,500 who has yet to come with the cash and pick it up. People are always asking him if he wants to sell it. Someone offered him a $1000 just for the bed. We purchased the truck from my brother who lives in Kansas so it's clean, not perfect. I know clean Fords of this age are hard to come by so I might be kicking myself down the road for getting rid of it. I have found a 77 f250 four wheel drive for a fair price and was thinking of doing a body swap. I could then sell the f150 chassis, engine, trans, and more then pay for the f250. I have two other 90's four wheel drive Power Strokes, so I love Ford trucks. Any thoughts or opinions? Thanks for your time.

That's the awesome thing about these rigs, the sky's the limit for customization. You can def get the truck you've wanted in the long run. The body switch sounds like a good idea. I wish my '79 f100 was a 4X4.
