Got the OK

Well tonight my woman tried starting the back hoe, and she couldnt get it going.

So tonight I got the ok to go and buy another 4x4, so I can use one myself and have one for a farm truck. If all goes right I will be getting a 90's f250 gasser. I also got the go ahead that i can put a lift and redneck er up abit!

Time to start shopping

Make sure the F250 is a 460, afew tricks to make it faster, it`ll be a fun truck!
When the time comes you`ll learn the ropes soon enough Ryan, just ask your dad about relationships.....

Haha far from whipped my friend

Sometimes its better to make them think its their idea to get what you want. Juat think about it, I got my woman begging me to go buy a 4x4 truck that I can have use a toy, that doesnt happen without some skill!

You will learn one day Ryan!

Actually i was thinking about a 351, but i dont think i would turn down a 460 I was also looking around and I might try and look for a late 70's ford too.

A late 70`s F250/460 hiboy would be awesome and so sweet, it maybe easier (?) to modify a non EFI too!
A little expensive, maybe over priced but a decent looking truck: https://www.ford-trucks.com/classifi...ate/1130733866
I like this one better: https://www.ford-trucks.com/classifi...t/20258/cat/17

Ill send you some pics. AS for price no clue yet. WE've just finally decided to get rid of it as its just been sitting the last couple years. Plus the money from selling it will give some more cash flow so I can really start into our Buick.

I look forward to the pics, and try and find out a price, even a good ballpark would be nice.

I would be happy lifting a 79 6-8 inches and throwing some nice sized tires under it

It is nice but at $10,000 it seems pretty steep....That`s almost getting close to 7.3 territory.

Yeah. I can see it from both sides. While a 7.3 would be nice, the 74 is pretty cool looking.

It would be sweet to have a 69 or so F250 Diesel 4X4, the best of both worlds.
Here`s a 1984 Ford F-250, Supercab, 4x4, Automatic, 6.9 liter. 215,000 kilometers in BC.
It`s a frame off project truck with a Logger Box @ $1500.00 obo.
