hey guys, i new here and i am hoping you can help me with some info so i dont make a very bad choice. ok,i am currently gather parts to rebuild a 1979 lil red express. well i went to a auction that a towing yard was having.i saw a wrecked 79 powerwagon with all of the right interior peices that i need including the bucket seats.when i was looking over the truck i thought to myself "wow...what a crazy 80's paint scheme". well i bought with only the intent to get the interior and crush the rest of the truck cause the cab is rusted and the front axle is gone.so before i do that i decieded to do a little research and stumble across this sight and relized i may have a orange/black long bed macho but not 100% sure. i will try to post up some pic but any info will be awesome.

What an awesome, yet heartbreaking find! How badly is the frame and cab damaged? I know you would be a hero among the members of this site if you resurrected this truck. Keep us posted on your progress, please! |

well the front part of the frame is bent real bad and the cab is rusted on the top part a little bit and the drivers side floor is gone.however the bed is in decent shape and i think the bed is a important part.but i think i still need to figure out key points thats makes it a macho. in anycase i have been thinking alot of trying to do something cause i realy want to build a powerwagon also and i know i can get another frame and front clip. |

awesome ...thanks for the help but after some thought i dont realy think i can save this truck but i can take every part i can thats useable and try and find another one.i know it maybe a shame but she is too far gone for me to tackle. however if one of yall wants what left after i pull the parts i need you are more than welcome to it.i would rather give it to someone that can use something than crush it.i want to build a macho truck with this design
