10 year Ford project

My 10 year 1995 Ford F250HD project bought from a neighbor it was filled with tree needles from sitting under a tree for years , it was a theft recovery . then sat around my place for about 10 years with no glass and started up pretty much every time to haul stuff around the property then I found a donor truck and put the white cab on the 1995 , it has about 70,000 miles 300 inline six and a c6 auto with 4.56 gears . the check engine light keeps coming on so I am going to have to change the in cab wiring harness and the windshield wipers don't work .

Welcome to FTE.

Looks like a very servicable truck. Good luck with it.

Read the codes, let us know what they are and we'll help you set them straight...unless you already know them, of course.

Even when it was at its worst, it looks better than half the trucks up here lol.

It was real easy , just undo the master cylinder from the booster dont take off the lines unhook all the electrical , steering shaft and 6 bolts holding the cab on and some other odds and ends and it comes right off . I just put some straps through the cab and under it .

The code that came up has something to do with it not being in park during testing , the white cab was an F150 6 cylinder 5 speed . all the dents and dings look like someone took an ax to it while it was stolen .
