Despite the 2/2a/3 bumper, I think it is a Series 1 80" chassis. The front dumbirons don't look right for a later model, and the wheelbase looks like 80". The low hanging fuel tank fits that as well.

SubscriberIt could be that was what was being copied, possibly from memory. The differences are numerous and stark.
