dinner became a new truck project....

went to dinner in town and ran across a truck in a driveway with a small for sale sign. its 67 f100 352 with 3 on the tree. all original, the motor had a "tick" so he pulled it apart (labeling everything in bags) and its all in truck. clean title and only cost me 500 BUCKS!!!! i think it was a pretty good buy, at least for trucks in my area. here are a few pics

Nice score! I might take my wifey out to dinner more often if that happened to me.

Love that color, reminds me of my dad's '67 F250.

I am assuming minimal rust since it has Texas plates?

texas plates. man we have the most rusty vehicles of anyone. but no there is hardly any rust. the floor pans have heavy surface rust on the bottom but no pitting. and the bed had the typical inside. but i LOVE the color also. i would like to find a good picture of a original truck this color and see if i want to paint it back to original
