Good looking truck. If you repaint the tabs on the grill that the F-O-R-D letters are attached to flat black, the letters will look like the are floating in the space. My grill is still original and they are flat black. Nice rig.

But then you also have 460 in there...so is this just a fine example of what piecing together trucks looks like? And what is the actual year of your truck?

when I first joined this web site I had a 74 highboy which I still have but the body is in bad shape. so that is where the name came from. I also have a 79 250 sno fighter which I use during winter plowing. and this truck I just got last week i bought it on ebay. It is an salveged truck from Az. the body is super clean no rust at all. the vin on the door is gone and been replaced with a az vin I found the vin on the frame and it comes out as an 75. there has been some swaping with this truck like the motor and grill, but it is worth it for the rust free body.
