I'll bet it's got a 327 Corvette engine, too.

I said to myself, "I bet it looks okay from the rear." As I was scrolling through the pictures. But I was wrong.

And the Pontiac Chieftain emblem on the roof doesn't help.

I have to say at least it has a somewhat one color paint job, so much overpriced junk you see on MP are bolted together motorless rusty "patina" rot buckets with prices in the $5K+ range.

Its the rare, elusive 'Ford-O-Lay'. Not too bad, better executed than a lot of home made creations. Is that a beer keg tap on the passenger side of the bed??? If so, that was the source of the design inspiration. Wouldn't mind seeing that one in person. It might have a Chrysler or AMC engine in it to round out the makes involved.
