Yes, from what I have heard (dont quote me because I have no idea) there were about 6000 made between 67-72 4000 4wd short beds and 2000 2wd long beds. I have no idea if those are good number, but they are rare. Can still find them in backyards everywhere though...
A pony car and a pickup in Wimbledon White:
Nice little driver with a 289, Blue interior and period Mustang AC. Check out those vintage hub caps. I love it when these old cars and trucks are driven and enjoyed.
Thanks for the compliments; it’s great to share pictures with people that have an appreciation for Ford pickup trucks. I snapped another picture this morning of under the hood. I have spent some extra time on my truck lately since it is going into the local car show this weekend, it’s never been in a car show before.
Having owned this truck for a little over 40 years I have always kept it garaged and clean. It’s a toy and not a work truck.
The rims are original equipment 16” split rims painted in Wimbledon White with silver lock rings. I did not venture too far away from OEM, at least on the outside. This year/model was not available with power brakes, power steering, automatic transmission or the 390ci engine. A lot a people do not realize that Ford was a little behind the times with their options on ¾ ton 4-wheel drives when compared to GM.
I post some more pictures, Thanks again,
Jim
Jim, first off, what a killer truck you have! Very jealous! I love the air cleaner and that is exactly what I had envisioned for mine. Which one did you buy and where did you get it?
Here are a few shots of my truck. It got paint earlier this year. I'm working out a few of the details still but have been driving it all over. Thanks to everyone on this forum for all of the help along the way.

If that pretty Red Coil is a MSD if a blaster ll there not recommended to be mount on there sides if oil filled. Cause they will over heat do one of two things
1. push the end out puking oil every where.
2. cut out off & on until the vehicle stalls, once they cool engine may restart and checks out good with an ohm meter.
So don't take it for a test drive or you'll be calling the tow truck like, I had to do just a 1/4 mile from home.
Non of the info paper work said this when. I about mounting it horizontal.
But found that on the Summit site.
Found out the oem Duraspark ll coil have the same specs so just bought a stock coil
Orich.
