1971 f100 4x4
I have a 71 f100 4x4 360cu, 4 on the floor for sale/trade. NC truck. The story goes that a farmer bought this truck brand new in 71. He passed away in 75. The truck sat in a barn for some 30 years, til his wife passed away. The truck was then auctioned off in the estate sale to the gentleman that I bought it off of. 3rd owner. The truck has 39,387 ORIGINAL miles! I have replaced brakes all around, including drums, shoes, wheel cylinders, and hardware. New shocks all around. 2 pushrods. New gas tank. New fuel pump. Fresh plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. EVERY single part that I have taken off, has been an original part! All parts replaced are OE. This truck RUNS AND DRIVES great. The original idea was to do a frame-off resto. However, the family has grown, and I'm looking for something we can all fit in, or something we could use. Plus I hate just watching it sit. The title is clean, and the doors close beautiful, with just a slight push. The inside of the bed has surface rust, but not a single ding in it. Before I bought this truck, I did some research on it. I found out that Ford only made 12,xxx F100's with the styleside bed and 4x4 combo that year. Out of all of these, I cant imagine too many farmers ordered them in Candyapple Red! Which happens to be the original paint code for this truck. This truck is a true survivor, and just needs a little mesaging. I LOVE THIS TRUCK, AND DO NOT NEED TO GET RID OF IT! But I would really like a Ford Falcon, 67 Mustang, or a 66-67 Fairlane. I love Fords, but will consider anything from any brand, from a quad with a plow, to a motorhome. If I can use it, I'll look at it. Cash always welcome, if its enough. What you got? I OBVIOUSLY KNOW WHAT I HAVE HERE. So no lowballers, and no junk! Message me.
