Description:

1970 Ford F-250 Custom

For sale: 1970 Ford Highboy 4X4 big block 4 speed truck. High desert truck that's never seen salt, it has had a working life. Good running truck that would be great for hauling firewood unless you choose to restore. I bought the truck from the second owner who used it for a wood hauler. He slipped off the mountain roads a few times, hence the body damage. I'll do my best to describe it below.
Exterior: Original paint on most of the box with primer sprayed over one side. I sourced a rust free front clip from an F-250 2wheel drive. The cab has matching dents on the pillars behind the doors at about window height. Parts of the cab have been sprayed with a lighter color paint. Plenty of dents, dings and scratches from a life of use, very minor surface rust but no rot, I'd say 98 percent rust free. Dry western truck, underside looks great. I'll add photos as my internet connection allows to the PhotoBucket link below:

Interior: Windows all in good condition with a new windshield and rubber installed. Glove box door is missing. The seat is wearing a cover, but upholstery replacement is needed. Turn signals and other lights all work, but pretty rough condition inside overall.
Mechanical: Starts, runs, and drives out with FE 360 cubic inch engine, bulletproof four speed. Engine is solid with good power, no noise, smoke or major leaks and good oil pressure. Transfer case works well in 2wd 4high and 4low positions. The speedometer adapter is missing from the cable at the transfer case, no speed indication. The tires should be replaced before any daily driving.

Pricing/Misc: This auction is NO RESERVE. Title is clear and in my name, buyer will need to get insurance upon purchase as I will cancel mine. Truck can stay here for 30 days, after that $100/month storage will be due. Reasonable transport is available, and I will help load the truck on a transport.
