thinking of selling the truck

i thinking of selling my f250. It's time for me to throw money at other things. Mainly the new babies and the house i live in. So i am going to post a note in the for sale thread if anyone is interested in it. For what i am asking the new 390 i built in it makes it worthwhile to buy, it still hasnt broke 500 miles since the rebuild. so come look if you want.

Dang, man, you are practically giving that thing away! I can understand the need to move on to other things, have had to do so myself. I gave up my 75 Highboy for similar reasons, was taking more to keep it going than I could get back, and had other more urgent needs. I still miss the old beast, but it was a definite money pit.

well the money pit part of it is just about over. i replaced everything i think. Just a little body work and maybe some new shocks and she is ready for paint. but hey gotta have money to pay other things so this is the easiest thing for me to sell. Not ever selling the harley, need the little escort to go back and forth to work, van is needed for hauling kids, everything else i got everybody else already has lol.

What kind/how much body work does it need? I am really tempted, but I don't know if I can come up with the extra cash right now. I'm in the same boat as you with the home improvements, and there's no way I'm giving up the harley either.

I guess I'm glad you're on the east end of Iowa, or I'd probably come look, then I probably couldn't talk myself out of it.

the only change since those pictures is the 4 barrle manifold being put on and the holly added, plus i took out those old inner fenders and installed those galvanized ones i got from fellro, plus i redid all the engine wiring too. and installed the sigle rear window and got rid of that slider i had. i have many pictures i can email you anything you want to see. call me 3197520508 or 3192091185

i updated the photos in the gallery to reflect what the truck looks like today
