After wrecking my Honda, Jonathan said I couldn't buy another one.
Being the only one left at the shop that doesn't own a truck, I bit the
bullet and picked up this beaut. $2000 isn't a bad deal, but she needs
a lot of work. I feel an extra strain on my wallet coming....

202,000 miles and no blowby, but it does have PMR's.

Mines the only orange truck at the shop haha.

The 7.3 and 6.0 of Jonathan's both started out this way. A guy owns a car lot and buys them from fleet companies and sells them. It wont be much cosmetically for a while. It needs a new bed and tailgate and I plan on an 05 front end conversion eventually. I'll probably end up painting it.

And I couldn't put our name on it if it didn't have any balls :naughty:

Right now I'm just trying to get it on the road. It had a hole in a brake line. I got it for $2000 instead of $2500
because it didn't run. Towed it to the shop and it was just low on oil. I dropped the tank and fixed the brake
line. I can't tell if the tires are just square or if it needs a lot of suspension help.

I know a guy with some body parts :thumbsup: Might even know a guy with some forged rod engines :poke:


I like the truck I think you should leave it orange and covert it to a 4x4. You guys need a couple 4wds around the shop. :ford:

Some bucket seats? Haha

Be a while until I can start throwin some parts at the
motor unless anyone starts feeling incredibly generous.

I can get you a new take off bed with tailgate for $900-1100 usually. New take off Bumpers are usually $175. The new ones work with 05+ front grills (don't need to trim 1.5"). New mirrors are $275 pair for take off FORD power/heated mirrors. Seats are tske outs and $100 each. I'll be down to check it out in a week or two.
