Just got a pretty good deal on a 1985 f250 from a co worker for 100.00. Starting restoring it here are a couple pics. http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._6029809_n.jpg

I love 100 and 200 dollar trucks. Good deal. Does all the 4wd stuff work?

 

yes every light and every option works and it only has 72k on it

 

Welcome to FTE and Congrats on the great buy!

Why did he sell it for so low?It looks to be in really good condition and worth at least $2000.

 

sick of the gas mileage and the rot but that was ok for me. I am fixing it up for my sons first truck. Had to do alot of welding on it but thats ok its coming along. thanks..

 

Oh okay.Well,best of luck and make sure you post up pics of the finished product.

 

Awesome! Going to be a sick first truck for your boy. Keep up the good work and update us on details of it.

 

You got a bargain, is your boy helping you on this project? Good luck, its a lot of work, but worth it.

yes he is helping me. He is a freshman but I am teaching to do some welding on it. He helped change the brakes, oil, plugs that sort of stuff. Thank god my neighbor is a paint guy, so we are going to do it up pretty good and wont cost anything paint wise.

 

I'd offer you your money back, but I bet your son would hate to lose out.....
A running/driving 4wd, for under $1000, is a pretty rare find.
