All it needed was Larry the Cable Guy hollering like he does when he jumps the jet ski.

Screw it just go ahead and make it into a baja 500 truck put a ford racing crate motor along with prob 20k for suspension and other odd ends and you should be on your way to a first place no problem. If you're not first you're last!!

With a few slight modifications and fixes I'd be willing to go baja racing in it as is!

351ClevelandC4,
Nice truck. My uncle used to drive like that on the back roads near his place. Pretty exciting ride when you're only a youngster!
When was your truck made, late 71? My 72 F250 Camper Special had the same grill as yours. I don't remember when it was made but it's my favourite bumpside grill. When I get another bumpside I want to have the same grill again.

Canadian '72s had '72 grilles. Someone swapped it.

Yea, you could be right. Or maybe it was a late production 71 and was simply registered as a 72? I bought it from the original owner and he didn't modify it. I guess it's just one of the older Ford mysteries.
