Good call Evan! I have done just that... and several hits already. Thx!

@taxreliever... good stuff, thx for the search! I'm trying to come up with just the 1976 tho... I thought there would be a lot more out there.

I can't even find it on the worldwide internet... does that make it rare? :) (Or does it mean I'm lacking in my searching skills?)

Miscommunication, I think. My point is that the truck is rare. Not that it was the only one made. By rare I mean; I don't know anyone that has one, you can't find one for sale anywhere, people still stop to ask me about the truck wherever I go, the truck gets a lot of compliments, and I can't...

@ UTfball68... I do see a lot of flaresides, but only one Ford 76 flareside 4x4, and that's in Europe. I am looking specifically for a 1976 F-100 Ranger flareside 4x4. And I just learned that it is a '76 1/2 in which Ford flattened the flange on the bed to accomodate a camper shell. If you could...

M78... thx for the picture. I notice that this truck has a much larger "stepside" area than my 76. I also notice that the rail on the bed is angled (making it hard to place a camper shell on it)... So I'm still looking for website or photo of a 1976 F-100 4X4 Ranger :)

Yep, advertised as "Flareside" in the 1976 catalog. For whatever reason, I had always referred to it as a stepside. To me, the word flareside brings up images of something different, and stepside makes more sense because you can step up on the side :) From what I've seen (more appropriately...

This is an extremely rare truck. In fact, I challenge you to find one on google :) I'd like to know what it's worth. It is a restoration vehicle- needs work all over. It would not be worth much if it were not rare. But its rarity is what gives it value... but how much?

Thx for the great info :)

Thx for the welcomes! I found "LMC Truck" and now subscribe to the catalog. Looks like it has most of the parts and accessories I will need. Anyone familiar with them? Thumbs up or down?

Greetings Ford Fanatics! I have just been reunited with my first vehicle that I gave up in 1991! Not sure where to start... It's thrashed :( It has sentimental value but will probably cost a fortune to restore. It runs but needs work. What's a good resource for parts? Or if I decide to sell it...
