1968 F250

I'd like to ask the group their opinion. I have this 1968 ford 250 which sat for 25 years and i got it running and it has two low cylinders. It's a 390 out of a Thunderbird, year unknown. The body is pretty much straight except the inner floor boards are rusted out. The truck is all complete and the body only has a few dings in it. It has a homemade full size rack. I drove it a little ways and the 4 speed trans seems to be good. It has brakes. I put 4 used tires on it with 16 inch rims. The truck is out of the California system so there's no back fees on a clean title. It'll cost $157.00 to tag and register it. I'm entertaining selling it. What do you people think it's worth these days?

You will have better luck posting in the earlier forum. There's a forum just for 1967-1972. I had a '72 F-100 so those models are near and dear to my heart. It's hard to say with just the info you give. I see models like yours go for around $3k-$4k in Texas and Florida. More if the engine is good and less depending on the rust and body. They are a labor of love.

Thanks for that info. I will post in that forum. I take it that the 390 T-Bird engines are that wanted? This engine really has some spunk even with the two low cylinders as i goose it and it rocks the whole truck. I had it in mind to resurrect it but I'm 71 and running out of steam. The truck itself is no cherry but it's all there and just needs a lot of tinkering as sat for so long. Plus the bed is not all dented up inside , unusual for that year truck.
