1980 f-150 "old blue"

New here! I'm 14 and this is probably going to be my truck, it is one of our 80s farm trucks... 300i with a 4 speed. My grandpa has a collection of 78-79 ford pickups also

Thanks! I love this truck haha power washed it, waxed it and armoralled the tires and inside yesterday! Plan on buying new door panels if I can round up some money.. I'll get pics of our extended cab diesel and old red tommorrow...

My grandpas only brand new vehicle was a 1979 Ford F-250 so he fell in love with them and started buying them up... Had a fire a few years ago and lost 3 trucks...

Take the time to connect with those who know these trucks and learn as much as you can, as with anything in life. Use ALL as mentors.

A few tips to start off with...In your signature, list your truck's specs, like in my signature.
next off...folks here don't do so well with "text talk" so proper writing does much better. There is much to be learned here if respect is reciprocated. We are are glad You are here !
