Found a truck!
3 Attachment(s)
I found pretty much the exact truck I was looking for, 83 F250, 6.9 IDI 4 speed 4X4. The truck has 96K miles and is totally stock. Only needs a return line kit, water pump and tires.
Oh yeah, a few pics.... |
nice truck jeff. Is the green part of a custom paint job.

That truck would be fully awesome with say....... a 79 Bronco body on it and some 35" mudders.
Looks like a great find. Mind if I ask what you give for it? |

The one I bought had been sitting for a number of years, but fired right up and runs well. I'll fix the few problems, maybe lift it a few inches and put a set of Qs on it. The perfect hauler for my place at Moro Bay :-X22 |
Shoulda hauled my donor truck away when I offered it. My fenders and doors were straight...and green.

Zack, I could never buy a newer vehicle to do what this one is intended for, hell I won't even buy a new one to drive daily :-X10 But if it gets a ding from sliding into a tree, oh well :confused: In years past when money was much harder to come by, I had 4X4s that were used for mud riding, but were also kept in road worthy condition also. Sometimes they had to be used when the daily driver gave up :o

...it really doesn't help that everything is paid for and I don't have to work much to make ends meet. As long as the bills get paid and I have money for my toys, Jeff's happy :-innocent

Getting back to the subject of the truck, anybody got a set of 16X8'' or 16X10'', 8 hole wheels laying around? Used to be popular around here, now looks like they are as rare as hen's teeth. I have a set of 16" Qs on my old Bronco that aren't good for anything but offroad, so I plan to put a 4'' lift on the truck and maybe do a little fender trimming to fit em. :-X0A6

I have an 81 F250 that I am parting out that has 16's on it but I'm not sure how wide they are. They are the original stock wheels. I also have a 75 F350 chassis that has wide wheels on it (single real wheel F350 not dually). I think they are rusty chrome wagon spoke type wheels. I'll have to check next time I'm over at Mom's. If you are interested maybe we can make a trade.
