Check out this beauty.:
1984 ford f150
Going to see if I can pick that up after payday. Not sure if I can get it ready in time for Pismo, but it should be interesting. Assuming the guy doesn't sell it before I get my grubby little hands on it. LOL.

Hey Scott, I will be up in your neck of the woods on Wednesday, as I will be driving up to Modesto to check out the F-150. Do you have a trailer that can haul that?

happy Taco Tuesday Nor Cal FTE, hope everyone stays dry. Of course with only a 10% chance of rain predicted by the weather guessers, it will probably be easy.
Stewart, I was unable to edit it myself, that is why I contacted George.
Scott, that is cool, I am still interested, but I doubt he still has it, it has been so long. And the one I am looking at tomorrow is only $750, or less. May need your help in getting it home, or possibly your place for a short stay as I cannot pay for it, and fix it out of the same pay check.
mrcman58 yes indeed, the price, and the paint job are what attracted me to it. Looking closely at the picture of the front end, I think I see a differential there, so it may be a 4x4, that would be icing on the cake.
But then I would wonder why it is so cheap. Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Yes Jim I have a car trailer that will haul it, taking my wife for hand surgery though have to be in Modesto at 12 ,if needed you can store it here until time to get it down to Fresno , speaking of witch I was in your neck of the woods today on biz, it was a quick trip with multiple stops , may have landed multiple projects
and we all know what that means multiple Benjamin's , well hopefully multiple stacks 
,
Mrcman , I know of the area that your speaking of SSJID bought the land off Louise and Austin they were support to build there complex there and move Away from PGE area , not sure who still farms oat out of there I think last year it was Corn.
Jim any word on the next GTG?

I will be going up to Modesto tomorrow, owner says he will be free from 3pm on. If I do decide to buy it, I will most likely need it towed on Saturday, unless you already have plans. If so, we can work something out. However, the owner has not responded to my email asking for his address, and it has been two days. So, I am thinking maybe it is already sold. 
I guess I will find out tomorrow.
If I do buy it, I would appreciate being able to keep it at your place. If we tow it here, it would sit in the carport for a month, and the apt manager might not like that very much. I am guessing because the gas can is so small, he says it has to be towed. No way I could drive it from Modesto to here on one gallon of gas. Especially with registration from 2005.
