I'd check the craigslist ads around the country. There are tons of scams where people try to buy trucks with fraudulent band checks, so don't be surprised if people don't want to deal with the hassle of a check and transport of a truck.

The 85 Super Cab is hard to find. I looked for a couple of months and then found my 84. Its the exact same as the 85 or at least close enough. LOL.
I bought mine on ebay. Payed through paypal. Its safer then a check or money order.

Are there broker companies that you can deal with? Just to be honest, I would not reply to an e-mail from anyone saying they are out of the country and want me to ship the truck. It is such a common scam around here that Craigslist even has it as a warning in bold on their Cars and Trucks page. I think your best bet for any kind of luck would be to try and go through a broker. They can also help arrange transport.

The only scam more common that shipping a vehicle is helping out a Nigerian prince cash his lottery ticket or winning the Cameroon lottery.

Find Your Car: Used Ford F150 Listings Near South Portland, ME 04106 - AutoTrader.com

This link is autotrader. I did a search for dealers. There are three pages and a saw a couple 85 super cabs. You would have to ask if they ship overseas or if you use a broker you can show him/her what you want.
Let us know how it all goes!!!

Not sure about that? Maybe the dealership may know? Or a local dealership there might be able to give you some advise?

here is what I would do.
find something on Craigslist, ask to have a phone call arranged, and be ready to give them a number form the Bank, where someone can verify your credibility, and that you would be able to pay for the truck, shipment, and any other costs involved. My dad does a lot of this kind of business, and those are always the steps he takes.

A lot of people get turned off immediately at the thought of having to ship something, especially to another country, and we have gotten to the point that no one trusts anyone anymore. Honestly, if someone e-mails me about a car I have for sale, and asks if I will ship it, I tell them "No". You might want to join a few other truck forums, and build credibility there too. At that point, not only will you have more eyes looking out for the truck on your behalf, BUT you are also credible with them and they might be more willing to help you. Patience, and someone here could probably get a lead on one or could even be selling one.

Coeninski, a gentleman from one of my other internet board has bought two vehicles (a mid-'90s Lincoln Town Car, and an early-2000s Ford Excursion) from a company in Florida. He is in England, both vehicles were shipped to him there. I will get hold of him and ask him which shipping company he used to get them delivered overseas. Please allow a few days for him to get back to me.

Dear sir , thank you allready. On the net I found a truck I'd really like , at a dealer , but they told me I have to arrange shipping myself. Also in florida/Tampa.
You don't know what it means to me that strange people on this forum are willing to give me advise , thank you all , C.N.
