My new Hight boy...check it out

Here it is, my new hight boy. This is my 77 F250 4X4 w/ a 400 plugged into a C6 tranny. As you can see it's pretty straight and I plan on making the best of this truck. Enjoy the pic...will get more soon

Very nice truck. It looks like its in excellent shape. Love the color. Ford lowered the trucks in mid 77. Looks like you have one of those. Tell me more details about the truck. Mileage condition and so on. Thanks

Bought it off the street.....Guy told me it had a blown motor in it and he replaced it with a 79 bronco 400 motor. The motor only has 40,000 miles on it from what he said. Everything is stock on it. There is some rust on the drivers side wheel well but other than that, pretty clean for a 77. It had a stereo but I told him to keep it. I paid $3800 for her. Now the sky is the limit. I will weigh my option and go from there.

Nice truck. The edit button is in the lower right hand corner of your post. It only works for a few minutes though after posting.

That is a nice truck. Congratulations on it. The 400 can be a great engine. For more info on how you can throw money into it, i encourage you to visit the 335 series engine forum. I built my 400 with a mild stock build, and after a few minor things were fixed, it runs like a scalded dog.

All,
That is a beauty!
I wish my trucks resembled that, even slightly.
I've got some rags!
