Wow, that think looks bone stock and in good shape to boot!

While I was getting a slow leak on my tire repaired on my Suburban at my local shop I took a closer look at the Blue F150 that I always spot but never have any time to check out. Apparently it belongs to the shop along with a host of other 70's classics. Depending who I talked to I got several different stories about it. I couldn't get to check it out very well due to the mountain of tires in front of it. It's weathered but no rust, no dents or other signs of body damage. It's an all original 77 F150 4X4 short box with a NP four speed, original rims with factory hub caps. The interior is covered with towels but from what I could see it's in pretty good shape, even has the factory AM radio. It has what looks like some hoist on the bed, I couldn't get back far enough to see.

OK enough chatter.

A local school bus company still has one that's still on the job today. A mechanic drives and plows snow with it. It looks to be pretty clean as well. It's a 78/9 f250 4x4 longbed.

I asked what the status was on it and I got 2 different answers. I'm sure that I could track down the owner and find out if someone is really interested.
