New to me 72 F-250

I just bought a 72 F-250 that's been owned by a friend of my dad for around 20 years. Before that, it was his dad's truck, so I think I am the 3rd owner. It has a 10,000 mile rebuilt 360 that was completely balanced, a 4 speed manual, and other than that is pretty stock.

My dad always told him that if he ever wanted to sell it, my dad would buy it, but he always told my dad that he'd never sell it. Well, he fell for a 2012 F-250, and now he's sold it.

It needs a bit of work the clean it up. The springs may be a bit saggy after 40 years, the steering box really needs to be tightened up, there are two very small rust spots that need repair, but the engine and drive train are really nice.

I love the watch on the steering wheel. Classic.

I think it's holding the horn button on. I haven't taken it off yet.
