That's a nice one for sure. As for the hood, I am sure the original was probably bent and replaced with what was available. Many of the original hoods bent in the middle.

Re: Cream puff
Does it have the cruise control set knob. On the turn signal stalk ? I thought '77 was the first yer for cruise. The hood is 79-80. Hey we're smooth fronted from 73-78. That would look nice in my garage. Hmmmm.

Re: Cream puff
Clean truck, great find.

I don't care for the lowered look though.

Re: Cream puff
I said in the pic thread as well, but this thing deserves a second comment; MAN that thing is clean.. Nice! Looks cleaner than most 1 year old used cars being sold these days.
