Hey Jim, I would suggest a 67. But then, I am very partial to them. Any of them are good trucks. Good luck with your hunt. John.

I know what the hunt for old trucks is all about I was looking for a year before I found my 67F-100!! Good Luck on your hunt and don't be discouraged if you have to do a little more work than you thought on it after you find one after all its over 30 years old.
