In about an hour and a half...

... I will no longer own a dentside Ford . At one time I had over a dozen of these trucks... about half of them ran and the other half were parts trucks. My '79 is the last one I have, but things change and now it's time to sell out.

Here's the auction for my '79 and some spare parts if you'd like to watch what it sells for http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=170339064149

????? why are you selling it?

Certainly not because I want to, I really like this truck. Times change though... a few years ago when I bought this truck we had no kids and my girl had a full time job, so $$$ was no problem. Now we have 3 babies and she hasn't worked in 3 years, so my focus and money has shifted more toward family than "me".

I'm happy with what it sold for though

ahh ok at least its for something good and not something like you lost your job. i you stay on the site, and maybe even get another dent side sometime soon

Sorry to hear you had to sell. But, I know what you mean about the focus shifting to family. My "truck money" has really dwindled down to now the baby money. I'm trying to throw just anything extra to get my project done.

Well, work has been slow lately and we've been laid off 1 week a month for the last few months.

I still have my little Ranger for my toy to play with. I hope one day to own an older truck again, either a dentside Ford or a 67-72 Chevy. The 67-72 Chevy trucks look cool, and are super easy to put on air.
