Help me find a truck!

Anyone in Southern Indiana know of a good f250 for sale anywhere? I'm really looking for a 70's model F250 4x4 for sale. I would also consider a F150 or even a F350 4x4's. I'm not finding hardly anything for sale anywhere on Craigslist or anything. I thought maybe someone here might know of a friend that has one that's not listed anywhere yet...

Thanks

Have you tried searchtempest.com? Sometimes you get better results with that site compared to just craigslist.

Also, if you find a good deal out of state don't be scared to look into shipping, I had a truck shipped from Wisconsin to Ohio for $450 a year or so ago so its pretty reasonable.

Craigslistcrawler searches every CL listing nationwide. Look a little farther west. They're more common than dirt around here.

head west

I have bought several 79 trucks & bronco's out west (Arizona & Cali) and in my opinion, if you want a rust free truck thats where to look. I have a few buddies out there that help me out in snagging them. I will never buy another vehicle (classic) from anywhere but out west!!

That one comes with some questions attached. If it's a '75 F250 4WD it should have an in cab tank and doesn't. It looks like it has dual underbed tanks. You can't really tell (not very clear pictures) but from what I see, it looks more like an F150 4WD than a 250.
