Wow! $450 is super cheap, a pair of fenders can easily go $700 because there are NO aftermarket replacements.....

I had an '83 and to this day kicking myself for it. If I had the room I would grab them but I figured I would pass it along to the community.

Yeah I messaged that guy about it, and all the wood on the floor needs replaced, along with a rusted through frame mount. I decided against it personally. Just figured I'd wait for one with at least all the frame mounts intact.

Good luck on that.
When I bought my 81 FS for $800 all the cross beams were replaced with square tubing and they used wood planks screwed to the tubes, not pretty.


I have a plan for a metal bed floor but has been too hot to work on the truck but will post when I get started.

The fenders themselves are the real prize in this ad. Try finding a pair......not so much fun in that search.

And the tail gate if in good shape.
You see what a new "FORD" scrip tail gate goes for?
It also looks like it has the steps w/brackets and I hear the step brackets are hard to come by too.
