Old Ranch pickup from dry high country in Colorado.Truck is a short bed Ford F-100 in decent condition withfaded original paint and original equipment. Dings and dents all over but still neat old truck in need of total restoration.
I have not waxedjust washed a couple of months ago..The truckbed is in decentcondition but needs new wood. The bedsidewalls and the rolledupper rails do not have any dings or dents and are totally straight...the tail gate has onlyone dent in outside panel just left center and is a little tweaked at the top and was added some time in the past
No rust anywhere except drivers running board and a rust spot the size of a nickel in the corner. The floor on drivers side is in good condition, the photo makes it look in poor condition...Glass is mostly original"fomoco"but have not tried to use side windows as cranks are hard to turn but definitely turnable...windshield has tiny BB hole in it. doors open and shut like new. The gaps betweenhood and fenders is good as are the gaps on thedoors to body...hood opens and shutseasy....truck was never undercoated and decent underside. original interior with good floorswith no holes in floors or in dash....all floors are solid with mostly original paint and some light surface rust only. original head liner is in good condition with one hole on pass. side...The gas tankisingoodcondition and seat still has original upholstery. 272Motor is all original but certain to need rebuild....radiatorisin good condition. Brakes will need to be rebuilt. Transmission is a 4 speed.
Iwas giventhis truck but had to put new tires on it just to move it around as original tires wouldn't hold air...The tires are one month old new from Coker and the rims are in great condition with paint removedwith thin coat of rust inhibitor. The tires were sized using the original Ford owners manual in glove box....I chose the larger of the 2 correct tire sizes for this 1/2 ton truck.
