Nice '51 5-star...

No affiliation, just an unusually solid truck. Going cheap so far (reserve not met)
Surprising he didn't spring for a $25 set of armrests and screw them on?

It's a decent looking truck that is missing very little. Besides missing the original dome lamp, it's also missing the wipers, interior metal upper door trim panel, and the frames for the lower (fiber) interior panels. I have all of those parts.
Many guys buy the parts to complete a truck, but I should buy the truck to complete the parts.

Nice looking truck and a well-presented video. From what I gathered from the video, the guy selling it is not the owner...sounds like he is doing his best to sell the truck as it was given to him. Buying wipers and arm rests would probably cut in to whatever profit he makes on the sale. I wonder what his reserve price is on the truck.
Atascadero is in a nice part of CA, just south of Paso Robles and not too far from the ocean. We have a North-South F100 run up to Morro Bay in August, nice place for an event. Would make for a good road trip for someone if they bought this truck.

That is a nice truck. He mentioned his web site on the video, but I didn't see this truck on the site. I would be interested in what the asking price is just out of curiosity. I'm continually floored at the disparity in prices for these old trucks.
His site also has info on sold vehicles, asking price and selling price which is cool.
Oh yeah, there is a $5.6 million property for sale on that site as well. Might have to go buy it.

Whoa! I saw this thread a little earlier and just sat down to welcome you. You have a pink fire truck!? Start another thread and tell us about that thing.
As far as the F-1 goes, congratulations! Good solid looking truck.

Go back to the "homepage" of this forum where you see all the threads listed. Then look up to the left and there should be a blue "New Thread" button. The little icon just above where you type the message that looks like a little mountain with a sun rising above it is where you post pics. Just click on it and paste the internet address of your picture there.
