I’ve crept here for years just reading and looking, figured id join and show off my 59s

 

Nice trucks and welcome to FTE. Jump in ask questions, and keep the pics coming. What is that white stuff in the background? lol

 

Love seeing some more 4x4's here!

 

Did you put a 2wd front axle on the F250? Pic without the bed looks like the Spicer 44, but the rest appear to be 2wd.

 

Always good to see more old metal.

 

Nice trucks! What are your plans?

 

Lol, snow. Ohio. Ugh.
I bought the 250 that way. At some point in its life someone stuffed a 2wd axle in it. It came with the correct 44 and the bed. Was originally a flatbed truck..

 

the F100 I’m leaving alone, might sell might keep, it’s a good original truck, the 250 I’m really not sure. Bought it because 8 lug is what I wanted, it has more significance in my life, but I had originally planned a resto mod diesel, using the original frame, but I’m a purist at heart so I’m not sure. It’ll stay wedgewood blue, that much I know.

 

 

Whatever you do, don't break that steering arm. They are IMPOSSIBLE to find! Bed appears to be in nice shape.

 

I actually have a couple nice beds and grabbing another next week, I’ll probably sell this one, it is really nice. One odd spot of rust

 

Excellent! Happy to see these survivors! Did you get them all at once?
