402BigBlockSUB · 03-01-2010, 11:52 AM

Love the truck. Can anyone on here tell me any info on the 3 gas tanks?

fjthompsoniii · 03-02-2010, 11:19 AM

Sweet truck! I'd darn sure leave those steelies and hubcaps on it though! and take a few accessories off.

Welcome! Nice lookin' truck you got there.

jim zag · 03-03-2010, 06:56 AM

I would use 235 70 15 tires on the front and 255 70 15 on the rear. I think you could find truck rally wheels in 6 lug used and it would look real NICE!!! I am JEALOUS!!! NICE FIND!!!!!

GREASEMONKEY72 · 03-03-2010, 01:58 PM

Pickupmanx2 · 03-09-2010, 05:19 PM

Nice truck, looks solid...

toms68cst · 03-09-2010, 06:28 PM

You're making us in the rust belt very jealous!

How many miles on the ticker? Looks like a low mileage truck.

Yup, having grown up in the rust-belt and watching my first truck die of cancer, I have enjoyed the beautiful preservation that CA has on vehicles!!
My 77 F@&D is an original CA truck and is in awesome shape, and so when I saw this one for sale and looked it all over, I HAD TO!! As you can see the bed is super clean.

Speedo says 97365 now, his daughter who I bought it from thinks it has rolled over to 197XXX, but it sure is clean and drives straight. I am the 3rd owner if you count his daughter getting it after he passed in 05. I have the original owners manual with the metal warranty card also! I have new shocks in the garage waiting for it, and new tires ordered, and that is really all it needs now, I already did plugs/wires/cap/rotor/points and that did WONDERS for it!! And I flipped the top of the air cleaner just cause I like the sound of the fours when they are open!!! mmmwwwuuuooooaaaaaa
it may not go any faster, but it sure sounds meaner!

cjohns · 03-09-2010, 08:34 PM

Nice!!!!!!Yep pull off some of the accies(mud flaps,rack on the box,big mirrors) ....sport bump in the rear,big and little tires with the doggies and dump it a little in the front!!!BAM!!!!Never find anything like that in Minnierusta!

ole red · 03-09-2010, 08:43 PM

Thanks, that's my 77 F150/SB/4x4/NP435/NP205 w/95k original miles, I am a sucker for old trucks,,,, I am down to just 4 trucks now,,,,, I sold my 66 F250 to a gent back in boston, and a 73 F350SCS I had I sold to a young man down in Fallbrook, both excellent survivors, rust free CA trucks. Gotta love this climate for that!

toms68cst · 03-10-2010, 06:35 PM

I can't believe that's almost 200k miles on that truck. It's been really well cared for.

Yep!! That's why I bought it, originally, I just stopped by because it was on old truck, but she said she a few guys looking at it as a work truck, and she really didn't want to sell it to them, but $$$ talks and BS walks,,,,, and I really couldn't see him getting abused, so,,,,,, here I am!!

Thinkin about these rims,,, yes I like the stockers, and I will keep them in case these really don't look good, but they caught my eye and,,
