That old Napco would be cool. Has the hood scoop as well.
|
Impressive how good that seat is in the '70. that scoop alone is probably worth a few bucks.
|
Unless the seat material is different for the Big Jobs that's not the original seat material. I had a 70 F350 . I'll post pictures of seat when I get tomy desktop.

My 70 F350 which I owned from 2012 to 2016. After looking at this interior again, I must say that I cleaned it up pretty good.

Yeah the NAPCO and its hoodscoop is pretty cool, but no way it's worth 7,500
|
Abe, might you have had an upscale interior? The instrument cluster and steering wheel is different.
|
The steering wheel was from a 1971. The PO put in power steering.
I'm thinking the instrument cluster was different for the bigger trucks. |
The Napco engine is not a 391 it's just a regular pickup or car judging from pictures. They air cleaner is from something else, Everything else for the hood scoop is missing underhood. The installer of the Napco decals must have been ill the day those were installed. Big truck are really cool to look at and ride in or drive once in a while. But best owned by someone else.
|
The NAPCO labels are on crooked? |
Did you notice the exhaust routing when they put the y block in the ‘52?

Wondered if that was for the fuel tank. Perhaps it was used at a small airport. Or maybe after the Coop surplused it, a small construction company got it, exhaust modified with the install of the Yblock. Wonder when the 48-50 hood made its home there?

Doesn’t appear to be a governor on the Napco.

https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...9cd2528da.jpeg The right bank exhaust wouldn't really well, would it. |
Routing exhaust out the fender instead of running it below the truck was common practice here in dryland wheat country. The hot exhaust would catch a dry field on fire, and that's never a good thing. Every big truck I parted out had the exhaust run like that.
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...b6204bc31d.jpg Regarding the 70 F750, the dash in the larger trucks used a different gauge cluster than the 'regular' trucks we're familiar with. Interestingly, the entire 67-72 style dash was carried over through 79 in the larger trucks. It's strange to open a door of a large dentside and see the bumpside interior in it. Similarly, when the F series was restyled in '80, the 80 dash was used in the big trucks through 97. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/a...1&d=1474045325 ^^^77 F600 ^^^ I'm no expert on large truck air cleaners, but from the build sheet included in the pics in the craigslist ad, the F750 was factory equipped with the 391 and the Clark 5 speed. From that picture, I couldn't say with any certainty one way or the other if the engine is a 390 or a 391. https://images.craigslist.org/00b0b_...I_1200x900.jpg https://images.craigslist.org/00M0M_...I_1200x900.jpg |
