Ok guys am going to be looking at this one in the next few days.

1979 f250 460 big block

looks pretty straight body wise. Needs a tailgate and a bumper paint some time down the road also.

How are is it to set up the transfer case linkage?
Anything i should check on the pan gasket leak?

Again thank for all the help.

I forgot to add he said the body has been swapped previously. Said it is a 150 body on a 250 running gear.

I'm not sure what to look for on the body swap. Do y'all got any pointers on it?

I have it set up to look at Saturday.

Quick question did these come with a full time transfer case? Looks like it doesn't have front locking hubs but hard to tell in the picture.

Well, it's been spray painted which is never a good sign. The passenger fender is crunched. Pass door hammered the fender. Rear bumper is gone, tailgate is gone, and it sounds like it's got quite a few issues. If you want a long term project that you're going to sink quite a bit of time and money into, I'd say go for it and I wouldn't pay over $700. A daily driver it is not. Looks like it's been ridden hard and put away wet! I'd keep looking if it was me.
