Look what I found today

I think it's a '75,every thing is there and it run's.I don't know what's in it for a motor.It even has a flat deck,which I want.The interior is in better shape then mine except for the seat.There are so many goodies on this truck,I can't wait to dig it out and bring it home.

LOL well i do need a better ashtray but I'm sure I have another in the pile of Ford. Just thought of it when I seen how nice that one sits in the dash. What are your plans for this truck?

I'm going to tear it down.I can use the dash pad,passenger door,heater controls,the flat deck is a good starting point for the one I want to build.I will probably cut the frame and turn the rear dif into a trailer,throw my box on it.It's got the NP205 trnsfr cse,with the NP 435 tranny (divorced)which I think is good to have as spares.There is so much snow I couldn't get under the truck.But there will be lot's of other goodies under there for me.

Talking The grill looks like a 77 to me.

Is that tranny a 3spd or 4 spd?

Always a good day when you find another 73 to 79 Ford truck.

Rick.

Good find. Lucky the grill is showing otherwise you wouldn't have known what it was. That's some serious snow there.
