Post A Picture of your 1980-1986 F-Series Truck

[1970Custom]

A true FrankenFord, '85 F250 cab and chassis/axles with the body parts from a '90, '93, and a '95 and the engine from an '86, and trans/case from a '90... It's a 460 BTW...

I can't remember, did John put the massive bumper on the new 93?


Looks great man! Even after all this time.

 

[Fordzilla80]

A new one of the F100....

Your truck is lookin' good, Shaun!

 

[Fordzilla80]

She's due for another cleaning though. When I clean the Ranger this weekend, she'll be second.

Not a member here, but someone on FTE. It did in fact have stacks, some chrome rims and a huge cow catcher on the front.

i really don't even think i need to say more about it except it's a 85 with a 300 and a 3 spd with granny gear manual... that truck has pulled trailers to places my dad's 3/4 ton chevy cldn't get to... but then, maybe it was the driver too ;-)

My dad's old 83 F250 had a straight six with 3 spd granny gear and it would pull a cattle trailer like nothing - always said in granny gear that thing would pull a house down. The 6/3spd combo was meant for work and Ford didn't mess around - if you can take care of a 6, it'll run forever and work twice as hard as engines twice as big

Here's my 1983 F-250 w/460

It is a non emission 1983 460. It is bare to the bones, but I want to put the cab from my '89 150 XLT Lariat on to it to get all the bells and whistles. Any helpful hints on the project will be accepted.

 

[Fordzilla80]

I'm guessing by bells and whistles you mean power windows/locks and cruise control?

Most of that stuff is plug and play on your 83, your truck is already pre-wired for most of it. Swapping a cab is way too much work if you're just wanting power stuff. Just go out to the junkyard and find a similar year truck and grab all the crap you want off of it and plug it in to your truck.

Nice truck btw.

That's a nice one for sure!

Thanks Fellro! I haven't figured out how to put up the big pics yet, not the most computer savvy. I'll have to ask the wife. LOL
