This guy looks to be in G-boro with four 67-72 short-bed project trucks for 1500 bucks total, plus a nicely restored one for 5k. 5k might be a bit high for that one (my opinion) but damn I am not gonna be able to sleep at night thinking about those 4 nice project trucks. Thats less than 400 each. I don't know if it's improper to post a c-list ad here. But damn. If my wife wouldn't kill me I would get all 4. No idea in the world how I could hide 4 trucks, given that I already have a yard full of classics and projects-in-progress..

4 F100 Ford Short Bed Trucks 67-70

 

What's up Cracker!
Four projects for $1500 doesn't sound like a bad deal to me at all. Even for that price my wife would field dress me if I brought them here, since we really don't have room for the four vehicles that are in the drive way, and I'm just a few months away from bringing Ka'Bluey home too.

But i'd like to know more about this yard of projects that you have. I'm off work, on long term disability and have way too much time on my hands, and a shed with some cool tools in there that I'd like to let see some daylight.


I'm in Apex, don't think we're too awful far away.

Me & my wife each have a regular daily driver car and my daughter still lives at home and has a vehicle, and then on top of those 3 we got 2 old cars in the garage and 4 other vehicles in the yard or workshop or under awning out back, I'll PM you.

 

I just found that ad you were talking about. I don't think he/she know what they have. Any of those four trucks are worth at least twice of what their asking for all four.
Wish had some play money, and some room. I'd have those 4.

 

I got nearly 5 acres.... so money is the only thing going I'm lacking.... I kick myself in the *** for selling the 69 I had.

 

I know right, short beds are always in demand.
Hey if you know of anybody parting out a 68-72 F250 let me know I'd like to get the rear leaf springs

 

I have a buddy back home that most likely has those springs your looking for, but I don't know how bad shipping would be from Missouri. I can check on the springs if you'd like
I'm sure fed-ex or ups could get you an idea on shipping if we can get an idea of the weight.

 

Yeah those would be heavy, and long too, probably some oversize shipping charge. Don't bother checking with him yet, I am still checking craigslist every few days & waiting for an old F250 to show up, and I also have not gone to see what LKQ has recently either. Last time I was there they had 2 bumpside F100's but no F250's.

 

I haven't been to any LKQ in several weeks, but same thing, there were a couple of dent sides, no bumps.

 

You looking for a 4x4 or for a 2wd?

 

Mine is a 2wd. I got the ez-ride shackles so my springs are 24x32 same length as the F250 springs. But they're rated like #2450 while mine are #1450 or something.

 

Gotcha....

 

This is why I need F250 rear springs. These F100 springs just don't do the job under a heavy load.

What about bolt on, overload springs
Looks like a pretty nice spread you have there.

 

I have helper springs on there, and I may get air shocks too. When it gets overloaded like that it tends to sway side to side and want to wander either towards the ditch or the other lane. Was a bit squirrely this morning taking that firewood up to Knightdale, I went about 35mph the whole way hahaha
