Remember this truck?

Hello everyone!

I was just wondering if anyone saw this ad or knew anything about this '74 truck I bought. Had it about 2 months now and just thought, Wonder if any Oregon Chapter members have any info? See the ad? Know the former owner? Just curious...Thanks! Oregon rocks!!!

I paid 600.00 and after inspecting for a few minutes and driving 2 miles at 5:00pm. Did some fluid checks in the dark and at 2:30 am left to drive home; 100mi's south of San Fran. Even took a detour on hwy 3 over to Weaverville on the way.... Ran like a top! Other than using a lot of oil there were no issues; heck even the stereo worked.

Here's the pics that were in the ad.

Good morning and welcome to the Oregon Chapter!

Sorry, didn't see the ad. It's on the west side, and I'm on the east side. Nice find, and a good price! Lots of good deals on old Fords up here........
