Dearborn Edition

Has anybody ever herd of this. Found it for sale it is a 79 f150 4x4 short box with a 460. Is this a special edition from Ford or is it just something made up. I know Ford didn't put 460s in 4x4s till later, so any help will be appreciated.

There is no such thing as a factory 460 4WD till 1983.

And, these 1983's were F350's only.

Ford also offered F250 460 4WD's in 1985/86.
