Rarest Ford Truck 73-79
#16
Well thats my point though...there were only 3,300 ever made from all of 73-79.
There were most likely more Super Cab 350's made from 73-79 than Super Camper Special 350's made at all.
If your looking for the rarest and hence the truck with the lowest # made...you cant just look at one single year of production...and not only that the question was concerning the 73-79 span.
So my vote is still for the Super Camper specials...of course that still ignores those trucks with the funky VIN #'s that seem to be cropping up.

Didn't want to bring this up again, but what about the truck discussed about in these threads. If in fact these trucks are factory.

$8950.00? Someone has dreams of grandeur.
Warranty Plate Paint code is MN
M = Wimbledon White / N = Maroon
DT4 is the interior trim code: XLT & Lariat = DT: Sand all Vinyl / 4 = Styleside with a Bench Seat
The rear axle should be a Dana 70, not a 60. 60's used in F250's, 70's in F350's.
Truck was built in San Jose CA (R code in VIN), and sold out of the Los Angeles Zone (DSO: 71)
Oh F350, where have you been since 1979?
The CA license plates are very recent, only a few weeks old.

Ya dont have to tell me...if you re-read those youll see that I'm still not sure of that myself. However...repeatability usually means it isnt an isolated case...and that means that in some way shape or form they have to be factory of some kind.
They were most likely made by Ford...we just dont know what exactly they are haha.

To me, The first digit looks like an H or K .

I see N as the second code, M as the first.
I don't need glasses to read, and the laptop has a 17" screen.
The seller should have used the same effort (cleaning) on that Warranty Plate, as he did in his superlative descriptions describing what I consider at best a so-so condition pickup.
