1970 Ford F-250 Camper Special

Post by Sir Henry » Thu Jul 23, 2020 4:05 pm

After ten years of owning this truck I have finally sold it after trying not to for the last four. I haven’t driven it in about two years. It barely ran on the old gas. Didn’t have much in it so wasn’t a big problem.

It’s really a classic truck. When the doors close you know it!

Carpet, stereo and the seat are upgrades.

It had 99,990 miles on it when I bough it. On the way home it turned 00,000 miles.

The dual fuel tanks are on the outside. The inside single has standard. Here an optional tool box is behind the seat.

I'm not a Ford man, but someone out there just got a real nice truck.

That is a clean one Sir Henry! Is that the original miles? Would that be a 390 FE engine powering it?

Someone is very happy with their “new” old truck.
My dad had one in the eighties in tan. It was a great truck.

Yeah, I want one of those. Something I understand how it works.

Amen, I miss the old points, plugs, & condenser days. DIY.

No it’s the 360. The 390 was so much better. It has 110,443 miles original.

The truck is headed directly to the auto shop for $18K of mechanical work and $2K on the making it look good. Then it’s on the way to Germany. My neighbor bought it for a friend.

Hey All,

Nice looking!!!

18k in mechanical really? What is wrong with it other than it's an automatic. I'm 65 never owned an automatic never will although technically I guess I am an owner since my wife bought an automatic at 66 years of age.

But still 18k?

Engine, transmission, suspension and brakes can add up fast. I’m thinking he wants to totally reduce the running gear. New but stock.
