I like green. Back in 1974 dad bought a 74 F100 Ranger XLT, Emerald green/Wimbledon white tu-tone with Emerald green interior. I'm going to pick it up this weekend. He hasn't been able to drive for a couple years now, and my sister can't fix the truck, so it's been sitting for a couple years.
I'm trading her my Nissan pickup for the F100. The Nissan was my stepdad's truck when he passed away in 98. I'd rather have the truck I lusted after since I was 9. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it, back in 74, the day he brought it home. Almost got it when I was 16, but dad went to grab his checkbook out of the glovebox to pay for the new truck he had chosen, and the original sales slip picked that particular time to fall out. D'OH!
Warrentty card, window sticker, and orginal sales slip are still in the glovebox, along with the owners manual still in the black "leather" binder, last I knew.
I'd say it is a good deal, for both of us.
I know the history of this truck right down to not only the original dealer, but even the salesman's name who sold it to dad after having driven it for a couple months as his Demo.
The chrome wheels on the truck, were purchased by me in Sept 89, for dad's birthday gift.
I'll get some pics when I get it to my house. It's got a couple scuff's, due to failing vision and whiskey breathe, but they can/will be repaired.
