Question 79 trim level

I know that y'all are kinda discussing this in another thread, but I was wondering if y'all could help me figure out the trim level of my 79 F100. the reason I'm asking is cause there is no badges on my truck and there is no holes right by the windshield where the badge would have been. and there is no badge on the glovebox, either.

well, I think it's pretty basic, but here it goes.

it has a 300 Inline 6, non-power brakes and steering, 9 inch rear end, 3 speed on the column, flareside bed, AM/FM radio, heater, no A/C, black grill and headlight surrounds, Ford 10 hole aluminum wheels, 85 mph speedometer, gas and water pressure guages, no cig lighter, bench seat, non-locking glovebox, no cruise control, and that's about it.

I hope this helps!

I agree with ranger429, sounds like a Custom with a few options tacked on.

oh and there's also no race-track molding on the side or chrome trim on the bottom.
