F200 - Do you mean a Heavy 1/2 Ton?
1/2 ton truck with 3/4 ton leaf springs?

Welcome "ford f-200" to our site.

You may be the first F-200 here I am not sure, I do know I have not seen any others posted. They are not many around for I have only seen them in Mexico and a few South American countries. They never used the badge here in the States. What year do you have? Tell us more about your truck.

Hey ive seen one, its weird the Speedo went to 140...i guess it was Kilo's rather than MPH which would still be cool to calibrate your kilo speedo to MPH so you can really reed to 140mph...not like i go that fast or anything

yeah, well the truck could break 110 easy if Dusten would ever give me my engine, and now that he bought that car and sold his truck, looks like im going to have to drive all the freeking way down there to pick it up....

And i dont think my 300 could break 100, lol But i have hit 100 before, at least i think it was around 100, the needle was almost back to the 5 mark, lol.

I'd like to know the GVWR of the truck as well.

Does it have eight lug wheels?

I've seen a bronco with the factory fog lamps.

Exclamation f-200

the f-200 is a 3/4 ton and it has 5 lug wheels. It's bed is not as the other trucks and I think its the only with that type of bed. The exterior of the bed is like the others, the only difference is inside the bed. I will try to put some pictures of it as fast as I can o.k.

Very interesting...

In america your truck would be called a F-150, with a GVWR of around 6000 or 7000 pounds. A sort of a "Heavy Half Ton" etc... It has five lug wheels and brakes of a typical half ton.

A F-250 starts with a GVWR of 7000 pounds. etc... and has eight lug wheels, and heavier brakes.

This is all Very Interesting, Hope to learn more about your truck.
