Hello all!
I picked up a 1979 F-250 4x4 custom Reg cab long box
(400 mod under the hood)
in B.C. for $500.
A guy had it for a dump truck for runs to the local dump.
I offered him $500 and he said; "help me make one last trip to the dump with it and its yours"!
So he turned the key and boom she came alive and I fell in love instantly!
Had no floor left in the box he had some plywood in it to keep things from ending up on the road..
Anyway to cut my story short..
I bought the truck, it came in RED faded paint. So I named her the red baron..
I drove the truck across Canada home to Ontario where is has been with me for 7years.
I've had the truck for 10years its finally time to restore it and I'm stating very soon !
I'm very excited to share the project with you all!
I look forward to all the awesome advise you can all offer!!!
I've been watching the forums for awhile GREAT stuff!
Keep up the good work !
Keep you all posted !
Cheers
