Just bought a yellow with full stripe package 1980 D50 Sport today. I got it from a young lady going to college, who blew the head gasket/cracked the head (3 valve head) on a road trip. She could not afford to fix it, so sold it to me. It was already disassembled by her mechanic so I got it with the head removed. It appears to have had AC at some point, but there is no condenser. Looking on here, I see where the AC systems were an add on by dealers/importers which is probably why it looked less than factory. I am guessing that the condenser must have been removed by a previous owner after hitting something, as the grill is barely hanging on.
She claims that the pickup only has 41k miles, but looking at it, I am guessing that it is probably 141k. Either way, I plan to pull the engine the rest of the way out.
Once I have passed my "nube" probation period, I will post some pictures.
Thanks, Jeremy
