nope not rare in the least. the seller just recommends it for a sportsman. However the title is misleading he makes it seem like "sprtsman special" is a trim level.

The Sportsman's Special was a low production dealer installed interior package; according to Ford of Canada approximately 150 packages were made and an unknown number were actually installed. The interior package features a headliner and horn button upholstered in a fish motif; please see the photos.

What makes it rust out there? I have never seen one rust like that. Down lower where the dirt and mud stay, but not up higher like that. Also from the pictures, it looks like the rear wheel arches are in good shape, which is were they all rust out around here.

what your basically paying 500+ dollars for is a headliner & steering wheel, otherwise this is an ordinary well used truck. However, around my area, this is barely rusted at all. Rust like that is from melted snow staying on top, as a truck stays parked. Not saying that this truck was that way, but typically how I've seen them rust. Falling leaves that get wet laying on top will do the same thing as melted snow.
