Hey all, post some pics of dentsides you USED TO OWN.

Here are some I used to own... that I greatly miss.

The flatbed F350 was a '76 model with a 390, 4 speed, and a D70 with 4.10 gears. It got horrible gas mileage, but would pull ANYTHING! The hoist was great for picking up parts... it could easily lift an engine or axle to load on the all-steel flatbed.

The white F150 was a '78 model and was my daily driver for a while. It had a 302, 3 speed manual, and 3.00 gears. I got 18 mpg with this truck.

The gray F150 on the trailer was bought for parts, I paid $300 for it. It was made of trucks from many years. The "390" turned out to be only a 360, but it had a 428CJ intake manifold on it that I later sold on eBay for $410.

The Bronco was a rust bucket, '79 model. I can't remember how much I paid for it, but it had only a few good parts on it. I wish I hadn't bought it, though.

The '79 hauling the trailer with the gray truck is the only dentside I still own.

Here are some more of the '76 with a 390 and Sterling axle on the bed. I really miss this old truck!

I wonder if he has a shortbed by chance? Would he be willing to trade? smilietease
I have one of these sitting around... I'm going to make a shortbed and trade him for his blue truck or that Bronco :rofl:
