THIS RESTORATION WAS DONE IN TRIBUTE TO THE HOLMES CORPORATION ON THEIR 100th ANNIVERSARY IN 2016. OVER 2,000 MAN-HOURS WERE PUT INTO THE BUILD. IT WAS ENTERED IN THE 2016 F100 SUPERNATIONALS, WHERE IT WON “TRUCK OF THE YEAR, 1967-1972 CLASS” AND THE TENNESSEE TOW SHOW-100th ANNIVERSARY “ANTIQUE CLASS” 1st PLACE WINNER (AGAINST SOME VERY STIFF COMPETITION!). IT IS A FULLY FUNCTIONING WRECKER AND EVERYTHING THAT COULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED HAS BEEN ADDRESSED. THIS TRUCK RUNS BEAUTIFULLY AND IS AN ABSOLUTE BLAST TO DRIVE. YOU LITERALLY CAN’T GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT BEING STOPPED FOR PICTURES OR TO ANSWER QUESTIONS.
FORD DID NOT FACTORY-PRODUCE A DUAL-REAR-WHEEL 4WD TRUCK UNTIL 1979. IF A BUYER DESIRED ONE, IT WAS PURCHASED IN 2WD FORM AND CONVERTED TO 4WD. THIS ONE WAS CONVERTED DURING THE RESTORATION PROCESS WITH ALL FORD PERIOD-CORRECT PARTS.
I HAVE DRIVEN THIS TRUCK A LITTLE OVER 100 MILES SINCE COMPLETION, ENSURING ITS NEW OWNER CAN DRIVE AND ENJOY IT IMMEDIATELY.
MY NAME IS MARC. I’M ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AT (484) 895-9870. I ENCOURAGE A PERSONAL INSPECTION AND WILL MAKE THE TRUCK AVAILABLE FOR THAT PURPOSE, WITH APPOINTMENT.
TRANSPORT: I CAN TRANSPORT THIS TRUCK TO THE BUYER AT ADDITIONAL COST. PLEASE CONTACT ME TO GET A PRICE QUOTE IF TRANSPORT IS NECESSARY.
