I looked at a 72 F100/302/C4/$1,200, not a bad truck but more rust than my 69 Ranger that I`m thinking of getting back on the road.

This is the add for the one I mentioned.

Sounds to me like there is no paperwork for it.

It`s a rare one Chris.
Here`s the one I was fairly interested in: 1972 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck - Saskatoon Collector Cars For Sale - Kijiji Saskatoon Canada.

I can see some rust spots in the pictures. It looks like the dash is pretty complete.

The truck is complete and running but there`s rust everywhere including the cab corners, too much for me to want to deal with it. My 69 is better than this one and I know that it runs real awesome and drives ok. I`ve put a new windshield, done the brakes and I have a whack of good body and mechanical parts hidden away for it.

More progress on my truck tonight. Falling asleep as I type this, so check it out.

Tomorrow will be a good day, and then I'll have the whole weekend to celebrate with my friends.

Probably best to walk away if what you have is better and you have a bunch of stuff for it.

Late repsonse, but whateva!

I'm not riding my bike around lately because I've been trying to get some good progress done on my truck. When working on my truck I tend to get stupidly dirty on my front side and my rear is clean. Since I need gear to ride my bike (helmet, gloves, jacket) and I like to keep my gear + my bike clean, I just take my car because it's easier.

Those pics in my build thread of the underside of my cab seriously don't do justice to how much **** was caked on the underside of the cab. To give you an example, I had to wash my hair thoroughly with lots of shampoo 2x in the shower to get all of the dirt and crud out of my hair.

I'd really hate to track all of that stuff from my dirty-truck-working hair to my motorcycle helmet, so I'll just use my car for now.

I'll be riding my motorcycle when school starts though

You'll probably notice my motorcycle if you take a walk around the physics parking lot at the U of S. No one else owns a Katana, and mines done up a bit... here's a pic or two:

Thanks for the compliments Gerry, spent a month this summer getting it to look that way. Lots of mods. Approx $1500 spent on it and MANY hours with LOTS of labour.

I'm taking Civil Engineering. Graduating year . The physics building is just the closest build I can park in (motorcycle-lot) to the engineering building.
