old trucks
Looks like most trucks are the newer ones. I like all but the 53-6 and the 67/72 are my favorites. What other years do we have in this forum? Be great to find out what the most common are.

Well before i bought my 59 i had a 79 and that body style was my fav. That 79 was the best vehicle ever. Had it 14 years and should have kept it. I was the second owner. 302 C4 std brakes and steering and was never any major mechanical problems with it.....atleast nothing i couldn't fix !!
Having said all this, my 59 is shaping up to be a good truck too, ugly but different.

Well thanks. The first time i saw my truck was 2 years before i bought it. It was for sale and i went and looked at it and thought......UGLLLLLLY.
2 years later i am looking for an old truck....Ford, and read an ad in the P.A. and knew it was the same truck, maybe not as ugly this time.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the pocket book. In my case the smaller the pocket book the more something affordable looks good.

t_dickie, looks like you have a higher bar to aim for now, another Ford! How did you like the 89 Ranger?

The Ranger was a tough little truck. I put it through hell and back and only ever broke once. Snapped the front left axle. Didn't like to swim though.......(thats a whole other story from when I was young and stupid, now I'm just stupid
