It is a 77. Not sure why. I was told it was he was traveling down the road and just locked up. I was thinking about buying it from the owner. IF I can find a rear end for it from the pick a part junk yard. What else fits it???

I used to have two 78 Toyota Celicas. I know the 5 speed transimissions and a lot of the engine parts were the same as late 70's early 80's pickups. I think the rear ends in the cars were tiny and not the same as the 7.5" rear end years as used in the 2wd trucks of that era. Not sure if that helps any but the info I saw on the link for Car parts did not seem to have much info other than yard #'s.
