Yes, that is a very nice old Ford. I like to see these trucks with the 1980/1981 grille and hood letters.

I thought the "swiss chesse" frame was only used on the [light duty] F100 and F150 trucks for the 1980 and 1981 model years?

I guess I was wrong.

I remember a thread from years ago on FTE where they debunked that, but it's still just as contested as the "M" in 351M.
