The outside is cool but he went way overboard with the camo on the inside. Custom built to his taste will be a hard sell and way over priced.

That thing screams "Duck Dynasty", and I agree on the outside paint idea. A good different if its as tough as rhino liner?

Here's a better option.
78 F250 4x4
1978 ford f250 crew cab 4x4 short bed
However, 78/79 are square headlights right? What year is this front end?
Too bad it's a 78 and has to get a smog check (in CA).

It has a outer grill shell/1 piece insert for a 78/79. But the round headlights (from what I read on here) make it a 78.
Sorry about your havin to smog things....say's the guy with nothing but fenderwell exit headers to stacks, ='s LOUD mud rig.

Frame Swap Question?
I have a 74.5 F250 Crew short bed 2wd and wanted to make it a 4x4. Some one told me it might be easier to just swap out the frame of one that already is a 4x4 then to try and convert it to a 4x4.
My question is what other years and cab styles had the 155 inch wheel base that the body could drop onto?
Thanks for any help.

67-79 crewcab shortbed 4wd is the option you have. If you go with a newer year youll have to do as much fab work as converting yours.

Thank you for the quick reply redneck, I'll narrow my search to those years.
What about a super cab long bed? I believe they are also 155 in. wheel base too.

crew shortbed is 150" wb not 155". I missed that part sorry. A sclb frame will work. Youd have to move the rearend up 5" or shorten the frame right behind the cab. I used a sclb frame and just cut my bed to fit.
