Another new 72...

[nobodyspecial]

I guess this must be the time for new old trucks.

4x4, strong 360, 4spd... $150

You bought it Josh?

I hate you people who live places where stuff doesn't rust much.

 

[nobodyspecial]

yes sir. $150 bucks. Nobody has bought my F150, so I bought another truck. funny how that works. lol

 

[nobodyspecial]

I was surprised about the lack of rust. There is one spot about the size of a half dollar on the drivers door, other than that and the box, its straight.

He had some stuff laying in the front of the box, so the first two feet of the box floor are practically gone.

looks like a nice project. price was right too.

HOLY CRAP. $150 is more than I'm going to pay for an entire pickup bed. That's a steal! Enjoy the truck!

Looks like a good ol truck. Whats your plans for it?

 

[nobodyspecial]

This is gonna be my offroad rig. I am gonna shorten the frame in the back, one piece drive shaft, NP205, and weld up a flatbed/roll bar contraption along the lines of this:

Just look at the back, I am keeping my doors and everything. The truck runs good, funny story here. The gas tank was rusted up, so to prevent plugging the fuel system, the PO disconnected it. when I got it home, we dumped some gas in the carb. It fired right up... and then started on fire. After testing my fireman skills (hitting it with my gloves and throwing snow at it) it ran really nice. I had planned on putting a 300/6 in it, but will run the 360 till it dies, or maybe forever, who knows how long it will last. Anyway, i ordered a 20 gal aluminum fuel cell, which will be here next week. gonna replace all the fuel lines and see how it drives from there.

Man, I'm jealous. I always loved the bumpsides.

 

[nobodyspecial]

This is my first bumpside, we have a few dentsides on our farm. My 77 F250 2wd and my dads 79 F150 4x4.

The collection is always growing.

 

[TexasNomad]

What truck were you selling?

 

[surewhynot]

I think it was a shortbed.

 

[nobodyspecial]

I think it was a shortbed.

Yep.

a 95 F150 super cab, I think the add might still be in the classifieds.

Edit: found it: Clicky!

 

[TexasNomad]

Let me guess short bed supercab with a 302 most likely white.
