5.9 to f-350 conversion. need opinions
 

Hey guys. I have asked a couple questions prior on a swap into my 97 f-350. I am having second thoughts on the year of truck I want to use. I am looking into buying a late 70's f-350 crew cab. What are your thoughts between the two years/body styles? Any pros and cons of either? A 70's era truck with a built cummins has a huge cool factor to me. Unless there are hidden things I don't know about these year trucks. Let the opinions flow. lol

:rocking:

are they both 4x4s?

The 97 you already own so its cheaper then buying another truck.On the 79 back trucks you gotta notch the engine crossmember or buy a custom one from autoworldmt.com
