Thanks guys. I seem to have bitten the old Ford bug. My first Ford was a 1975 F100 that I bought in 1977 or so. I took it west in 78 and was through Yellowstone and down around Golden CO for several days. Since then I've had a lot of new trucks but lately I don't like them so well. And a fellow can't buy what he wants anymore cuz they no longer build a man's truck. So when this sweet 1969 F100 came up for sale I bought it. Standard cab and manual transmission. No A/C, no cruise control, electric windows, power steering, and it still starts with a key! Just about how I would order one today if I could. But I can't so sorry Ford. No more new trucks for me.
I have a couple heavy Fords too. This 1961 I have equipped to test drawbar horsepower as was done with the Nebraska Tractor Tests. It is scheduled to go to LaPorte IN in a couple weeks for the national Allis Chalmers show. So wave if you see me on the road. I'll be trailering it as it takes a lot less fuel that way.
