BODY-THE BODYON THIS TRUCK IS TRULY WHATDREW ME IN AND IS THE MOST ATTRACTIVE PART OF THIS TRUCK TO ME. THE SLIGHT PATINA AND WEAR GIVES THIS TRUCK ITS PERSONALITY AND SHOWS THE HISTORY AND THE OBVIOUS LOVE THIS TRUCK HAS ALWAYS SEEN. THE FACTORY ORIGINAL 1979 YELLOW PAINT STILL HAS A BEAUTIFUL DEEP HIGH GLOSS SHINE WITHABSOLUTELYNO CANCER BEYOND A LITTLE SURFACE RUSTTHROUGHOUTTHE ENTIRE TRUCK! THIS WAS A SINGLE-FAMILY OWNERSHIP UNTIL EARLIER THIS YEAR THAT TRULY CHERISHED AND LOVED THIS TRUCK WHICH IS OBVIOUS BY THE ORIGINAL, PRESERVED CONDITION. NO ACCIDENT HISTORY, ALWAYS BEEN A WASHINGTON STATE TRUCK, AND ALWAYS CARED FOR AND MAINTAINED. THE KILLER AGED AND EARNED PATINA WITH THE GLOSSY ORIGINAL BRIGHT YELLOW LACQUER PAINTHAS ALL THE RIGHT LOOK AND AGE MOST OF US ARE LOOKING FOR ON A SURVIVOR TRUCK.THERE HAS BEEN SOME PAINT AND MINOR ROUGHED IN BODY WORK ON THE RIGHT BED SIDE JUST BEFORE AND AFTER THE REAR TIRE OPENING. THE PAINT WAS BLENDED INTO THE ORIGINAL COAT TO JUST BELOW THE BODY MOLDING, BUT THE REST OF THE TRUCK INCLUDING TO PAINT ABOVE THE MOLDING ON THE RIGHT BEDSIDE IS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY SPRAYED SINGLE STAGE PAINT. THE COLOR MATCHES WELL AND DOESN’T TAKE AWAY FROM THE KILLER LOOK AND APPEAL ON THIS KIND OF SURVIVOR TRUCK, BUT ONCE UP CLOSE YOU CAN TELL SOME WORK WAS DONE AND THE PAINT DOESN’T HAVE THE SAME SMOOTH FEEL AND GLOSS AS THE ORIGINAL PAINT. THE SLIGHT PATINA AND WEAR GIVES THIS TRUCK ITS PERSONALITY AND SHOWS THE HISTORY AND LOVE THIS TRUCK HAS ALWAYS SEEN. YOU CAN TELL BY ONE GLANCE HOW SOLID AND HONEST THIS TRUCK IS BY THE PICS ON THE TOP OF THE ROCKERS, BOTTOM OF FLOORBOARDS, BODY MOUNTS, UNDERSIDE OF ROCKERS, CAB CORNERS, BED FLOOR, REAR BED CORNERS, INNER WHEEL WELL, FIRE WALL, UNDERSIDE OF HOOD AND ALL THE OTHER HIGH RUST AREAS ON THIS GENERATION OF FORD.IT IS HARD TO DESCRIBE HOW NICE THIS BODY IS AND HOW KILLER LOOKING THE AGEDPATINAALONG THE BED SIDE AND DOORS IS. IT IS ONE THING TO HAVE AGE AND PATINA, BUT TO HAVE THE APPEALING LOOKING PATINA IN ALL THE RIGHT SPOTS LIKE THIS TRUCK IS HARD TO FIND AND IT IS TRULY A ONE OF A KIND TRUCK! THIS CLASSIC IS SOLID AND STRAIGHT, BUT CLEARLY SHOWS AGE WITH 40-YEAR-OLD PAINT WEAR AND SMALL CHIPS AND LITTLE SURFACE SCRATCHES, BUT TO ME THAT ADDS THE DESIRE AND VALUE OF THIS TRUCK. ONE OF THE MOST TRULY BEAUTIFUL AND IMPRESSIVE PARTS OF THIS TRUCK IS THE TAILGATE WHICH IS INPHENOMENALCONDITION, ALONG WITHTHE UNDERSIDE OF THE HOOD AND FIREWALL. AMAZINGLY ALL THE GLASS IS ORIGINAL ON THE TRUCK WITH THE FACTORY CARLITE LOGO INCLUDING THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THE ORIGINAL CHROME SHOWS JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WEAR, BUT STILL HAS THAT REFLECTION AND POP YOU EXPECT FROM CHROME. THE ALUMINUM SIDE BODY TRIM, FRONT GRILLE AND HUBCAPS STILL HAVE THAT BRIGHT FINISH TO THEM AND ARE NOT FADED TO THAT NEAR WHITE LOOK YOU USUALLY SEE, WHICH FURTHER MORE SHOWS THE CARE THIS TRUCK RECEIVED AND LOW MILE LIFE. THE LIGHTS AND LENSES THROUGHOUT ARE CLEAR AND FREE FROM CRACKS AND CONDENSATION AND HAVE WORKING BULBS.YOU CAN SEE CLOSE UP PICTURES AND VIDEO OF ANY IMPERFECTIONS, THE MOSTNOTICEABLEOF WHICH ARE THE SMALL DENT IN THE PASSENGER SIDE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR. THE ORIGINAL MIRRORS, BUMPERS, CHROME GRILLE, AND TRIM PIECES ARE ALL THERE AND IN GREAT 43-YEAR-OLD CONDITION. THE DOOR RUBBERS ARE IN GOODORIGINALSHAPE THAT DO NOT LEAK WATE, BUT COULD USE REPLACING ALONG WITH THE INNER AND OUTER DOOR FELTS THAT HAVE CHIPPING AND CRACKS, BUT A NEW SET IS ONLY $37 TO THE DOOR. THIS IS A ORIGINAL TRUCK, SO IT WILL HAVE SOME SURFACE RUST IN AREAS LIKE THE BOTTOM INNER EDGE OF DOORS, BUT THERE IS ZERO CANCER AND ALL THE METAL IS VERY DRY AND SOLID. I HAVE MANY CLOSE-UP PICS OF THE TRIM AND PAINT THAT CAN ALSO BE SEEN IN THE VIDEO ALONG WITH ANY WEARIN THE PAINT, BUT IF MORE ARE NEEDED LET ME KNOW. THIS HAS BEEN A WELL LOVED AND CARED FOR CLASSIC THAT IS VERY HARD TO FIND NOT ONLY UN-MOLESTED ORIGINAL CONDITION, BUT VERY HARD TO FIND ONE OF THIS CALIBER IN THIS BEAUTIFUL AND SOLID CONDITION LIKE THIS 4X4 HALF TON BEAUTY :)

THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN A NON-SMOKER ALL ITS LIFE AND IS FREE FROM ANY SMELLS, LEAKS OR ODORS. THE DASH IS IN GREAT SHAPE WITH NICE BLACK PAINT ON THE METAL AREAS, THE DASH PAD IS CRACKED FROM THE HOT EASTERN WA WEATHER, BUT AS SEEN IN PICS A NICE REPLACEMENT COMES WITH DASH PAD WITH NO CRACKS, ALL PLASTIC TRIM HAVE NO CHIPS OR CRACKS AND THE CARDBOARD INNERGLOVE BOXIS INTACT AND IN NICE SHAPE SHOWING THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN A DRY TRUCK WITH NO WATER LEAKS.

THE FACTORY RUBBER FLOOR-MAT IS IN VERY NICE PRESERVED CONDITION WITH JUST A COUPLE AGE CRACKS NEAR THE SHIFTER BOOTS. BOTH DOOR PANELS ARE ORIGINAL AND IN EXCELLENT SHAPE THAT HOLD TIGHT TO THE THE DOOR, HAVE NEVER BEEN OFF WITH NO CRACKS, CHIP, SUN DAMAGE OR EXTRA SCREWS DRILLED IN. BOTH OF THE VISORS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE WITH THE LITTLE RUBBER END CAPS STILL IN PLACE TO HOLD THEM IN TIGHT WHEN CLOSED, MOVE FREELY AND WILL STAY OUT OR UP.

MECHANICAL-THISOLD F-SERIESIS VERY SOLID MECHANICALLY ANDIS A STRONG AND SMOOTH RUNNER WITH NO HESITATION, TICKING, SMOKING, MAJOR LEAKS OR ISSUES. IT DRIVES AND STOPS NICE STRAIGHT AND TIGHT JUST AS IT SHOULD WITH BRAND NEW TIRES THIS YEAR. THE MOTOR, ENGINE BAY AND UNDERSIDE OF THE HOOD IS FAR CLEANER THEN ANY 40+ YEAR OLD ORIGINAL TRUCK IV EVER SEEN. YOU HAVE TAKE THE TIME TO SLOWLY LOOK AROUND THE INNER FENDERS, CORE SUPPORT, UNDERSIDE OF HOOD AND COMPARE IT TO OTHER ORIGINAL 70’S VEHICLES TO APPRECIATE AND REALIZE HOW CLEAN AND UN-TOUCHED THIS TRUCK IS. ALL THE BOLTS ALONG THE FENDERS, HOOD AND INNER FENDERS HAVE NEVER BEEN TOUCHED AND MOST STILL HAVE A LITTLE ANODIZED BRONZE SHINE STILL TO THEM. THE HARD TO FIND 300 INLINE 6 CYLINDER RUNS VERY QUIET, SMOOTH AND DEPENDABLE AND GIVES THAT SWEET AND ICONIC SEWING MACHINE LIKE SOUND. THE 4SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS A NICE PROPER FEELING CLUTCH, TIGHT H PATTERN SYNCHROS WITH SMOOTH UP AND DOWN SHIFTS. THE POWER STEERING MAKES THIS TRUCK A EASE TO DRIVE THAT TRACKS STRAIGHT, SMOOTH AND ISAMAZINGLYTIGHT AND STRAIGHT EVEN ON THEHIGHWAY. POWER BRAKES UP FRONT THAT STOP SMOOTHLY AND STRAIGHT WITH NO PULLING OR ISSUES. ALWAYS FIRES RIGHT UP TWO PUMPS TO THE PEDAL THAT IS NO LONGER NEEDED ONCE IT COMES UP IN TEMP. THIS TRUCK RUNS SMOOTH AND COOL WITH NO STRESSFUL CARB ISSUES AND HAS A SMOOT, CRISP THROTTLE. IT’S A ORIGINAL TRUCK SO HAS SOME DIRT AND GREASE HERE AND THERE, BUT IS NOT A LEAKER AND IS A CLASSIC TRUCK THAT CAN IS READY AND CAPABLE TO BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED:)
WHILE I KNOW EVERYONE'S OPINION IS DIFFERENT AND THIS TRUCK TO ME IS EVERYTHING AN OLD TRUCK SHOULD BE, WHILE IT HAS SOME MINOR FLAWS SHOWING ITS JOURNEY AND STORY ANDSTOPS PEOPLE, GETS COMPLIMENTS, STARTS CONVERSATIONS WITH STRANGERS AND STANDS UP TO ANY JOB IT IS ASKED TO. THIS TRUCK FULLFILS THAT OLD TRUCK NEED AND FEELING MOST ARE LOOKING FO, BUT IF YOU HAVE NOT EVER OWNED OR DRIVEN A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DOSIMPLY LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF MODERN INVENTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED SINCE THIS TRUCK WAS BORN AND HOW FAR OTHER ITEMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER THE PAST FEW DECADESAND KEEP IN MIND NEW VEHICLES HAVE THE BOXES TO CHECK FOR COMFORT OPTIONS LIKE LEATHER, HEATED SEATS, NAVIGATION ETC AND VEHICLES OF THIS ERA LOADED MEANT GETTING POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, A BASIC AM STEREO AND A SPARE TIRE :) THIS MAY HELP TO AIM YOUR EXPECTATIONS ON OWNING A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE.
The older the car, the harder it is to define the condition of the vehicle.Most of our vehicles are specialty vehicles or are 15+ years old, and usually trucks. Because of this, it is very difficult to describe each vehicle to everyone’s satisfaction. Based on the bidder'spersonal experience, some bidders will be overly pleased with my description and pictures, and others may feel that I fell short. I postthese auctions based on how I want to see auctions when I’m buying, keeping in mind what I look for, and I try to put your eye's to what I can see and touch. Please help me by asking all questions and letting me know if other pictures are wanted. If you do not see a pic or description of a item or a area on the truck please do not assume anything and ask me about the specifics your a needing or for more pics and i will post every question asked by members so all potential bidders can see. Every car is available for inspection and i personally drive each vehicle before listing it andIf anything does not work properly I will let you know. Of course I amonly human and these are mechanical creatures and these are usedvehicles, so please keep this in mind when bidding
