question about ford 71 trim level...

hey there i´m currently restoring an f250 4x4 and it came with some interesting things when i got it... i wanted to know if it came like that from the factory.... it has a shovel under the hood, an ax on the inside driver side fender.. a military ammo box where the battery is sometimes located on the drivers side.. the battery is on the pasanger side... and also want to know what else did it come with that way i can add it to it... its going to be an off road truck why build a truck just to look at it.... on and on the bed it has badges that say custom... thanks

I don't believe any of those mentioned items are Ford. After 40 years many things can be added by owners.

Yep. I agree with John. I've been a Ford partsman since 1978. There was an optional "power pak" (generator) unit mounted where your ammo box is but that's it. None of the items you mentioned.

'Power Pak'

gildardo01: Dual batteries were first offered as an option in 1973. Prior years, were usually installed by RV dealers.
