F-250 or F-350 4x4 for towing a Bobcat?

I'm trying to decide on a 78/79 F-250 4x4 or a 78/79 F-350 4x4. I will be towing a Bobcat, so which is the better choice?

Thanks!

the difference between the two trucks is minimal. if the 350 is a dually, it will be more stable with a fifth wheel hitch.
the bigger issue will be the engine size. a 460 will be the way to go especially if you are in a hilly area.
a 300 six cylinder with a tall gear will get the job done also.
