WE ARE ALWAYS ON THE HUNT FOR CLEAN CLASSICS BUT ESPECIALLY INTERNATIONALS CHEVY'S AND CLASSIC OLD FORDS!! THIS TRUCK COMES WITH A MARTI REPORT THAT SHOWS IT CAME WITH A LOT OF OPTIONS FOR 75 WITH THE RANGER PKG, DELUXE EXTERIOR & INTERIOR TRIM, POWER STEERING, 4-SPEED MANUAL, POWER BRAKES, HEAVY DUTY RADIATOR AND ALTERNATOR, CHERRY RED PAINT OPTION, DANA 60 AXLES FRONT AND REAR AND THE 360 V8. TO HAVE ORIGINAL PAINT THIS CLEAN LOOKING AND FOR THE ENTIRE TRUCK TO OVERALL BE THIS CLEAN, ORIGINAL AND INTACT WITH ALL THE BOOKS AND EVERYTHING IT CAME WITH IN 75 SHOWS THE LOVE, CARE AND PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP THIS FAMILY GAVE THIS TRUCK IN IT'S LIFE. THIS TRUCK HAS NICE SOLID OPENING AND CLOSING DOORS FREE OF ANY DOOR SAG THAT GIVE THAT SOLID POP SOUND WHEN THE DOOR HANDLE IS PULLED AND THAT BEAUTIFUL DEEP SOLID BRIEFCASE LIKE SOUND EVERY CAR GUYLOVES TO HEAR WHEN CLOSING THE HEAVY DOOR ON A CLASSIC AND THIS TRUCK DRIVES TIGHT AND SOLID FROM COUNTRY ROADS TO A ARROW STRAIGHT RIDE ON THE HIGHWAY.
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 1975 CANDY APPLE RED PAINT STILL HAS A BEAUTIFUL DEEP HIGH GLOSS SHINE WITH ABSOLUTELYNO RUST THROUGHOUTTHE ENTIRE TRUCK! WITH SINGLE-FAMILY OWNERSHIP, A FATHER-SON DUO 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 RED LAQUER PAINTHAS ALL THE RIGHT LOOK AND AGE MOST OF US ARE LOOKING FOR ON A SURVIVOR TRUCK.THERE HAS BEEN SOME PAINT WORK ON THE HOOD AND BLENDED INTO THE PASSENGER FENDER ALONG WITH ON THE ROOF AND THERE HAS BEEN PAINT WORK DONE UNDER THE GAS FILLER, THAT HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN WORN AND TARNISHED FROM YEARS OF OVER SPILLS. THE PAINT WORK WAS DONE 30+ YEARS AGO AND HAS AGED A LITTLE DIFFERENT, BUT DOESN'T TAKE AWAY FROM THE KILLER LOOK AND APPEAL ON THIS KIND OF SURVIVOR TRUCK. 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 DOORS, FLOORBOARDS, BODY MOUNTS, UNDERSIDE OF ROCKERS, CAB CORNERS, BOTTOM SIDE OF BED, REAR BED CORNERS, INNER WHEEL WELLS 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 AGED PATINAALONG 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 43-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 IN PHENOMENALCONDITION, ALONG WITH BEAUTIFULAND STRAIGHT BED RAILS, A NICE STRAIGHT BULKHEAD AND VERY CLEAN INSIDE OF THE BED. THE ORIGINAL CHROME SHOWS JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF WEAR, BUT STILL HAS THAT REFLECTION AND POP YOU EXPECT FROM CHROME. 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 MOST NOTICEABLEOF WHICH ARE THE DENT IN THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR, A SOFT DENT IN THE FRONT FASCIA OF THE HOOD THAT HAS NO PAINT DAMAGE AND COULD BE SMOOTHED OUT BY A PAINTLESS DENT REPAIR SPECIALIST, A SMALL DENT IN THE REAR BUMPER, AND THE PAINT WEAR BELOW THE GAS CAP ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE ORIGINAL MIRRORS, BUMPERS, CHROME GRILLE, AND TRIM PIECES ARE ALL THERE AND IN GREAT 43-YEAR-OLD CONDITION. THE DOOR RUBBERS ARE IN NICE ORIGINALSHAPE THAT DO NOT LEAK WATER AND WE HAVE REPLACED THE INNER AND OUTER DOOR FELTS WITH NEW PIECES. THIS IS A ORIGINAL TRUCK, SO IT WILL HAVE SOME SURFACE RUST IN AREAS, 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 RED HEAVY DUTY BEAUTY :)
INTERIOR-THE INSIDE OF THIS TRUCK IS MOSTLY ALL ORIGINAL AND IN GREAT SHAPE! THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN A NONSMOKER ALL ITS LIFE AND IS FREE FROM ANY SMELLS OR ODORS. THE DASH IS IN AMAZING SHAPE WITH NICE GLOSSY RED PAINT ON THE METAL AREAS, A PERFECT DASH PAD WITH NO CRACKS, ALL PLASTIC TRIM HAVE NO CHIPS OR CRACKS AND THE CARDBOARD INNER GLOVE BOXIS INTACT AND IN NICE SHAPE SHOWING THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN A DRY TRUCK WITH NO WATER LEAKS. ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS WORK ALONG WITH THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER FOR YOU ELECTRONIC CHARGE UP NEEDS. THE FRONT WING WINDOWS OPEN AND LOCK PROPERLY ALONG WITH THE DOOR WINDOWS THAT ROLL UP AND DOWN SMOOTHLY. THE ORIGINAL RED VINYL SEAT IS IN REALLY GOOD CONDITION, WITH THE ONLY IMPERFECTIONS BEING A SLIT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT AREA, AND SOME WEAR AND BREAKDOWN ON THE DRIVER SIDE BACKREST AREA. THE CARPETS HAVE BEEN REMOVED TO PRESERVE THE TRUCK BECAUSE THE CARPETS CAN TRAP WATER THAT CAUSE DAMAGE AND FLOOR PAN CANCER. THE FLOORBOARDS HAVE JUST SLIGHT SURFACE RUST BUT ARE MOSTLY IN GREAT SHAPE WITH SHINY, GLOSSY RED PAINT AND STILL HAVE THE RUBBER DRAIN PLUG BROMMETS STILL INTACT . BOTH DOOR PANELS ARE ORIGINAL AND IN VERY NICE SHAPE, ALTHOUGH THE OWNER DID DRIVE TWO SCREWS THROUGH EACH TO HOLD THE PANELS TIGHT TO THE DOOR, WHICH IS A VERY COMMON FIX FOR THESE DOOR PANELS THAT TEND TO POP AWAY FROM THE DOOR AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS. BOTH OF THE VISORS ARE IN GOOD SHAPE AND STAY PUT WHEN YOU ADJUST THEM, AND THE HEADLINER IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. ALL THE GAUGES WORK CORRECTLY AND THERE IS NO CRACKING OR DAMAGEIN THE DASH, ALTHOUGH THERE IS A SOME SMALL TYPICAL CRACKS IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND FOGGING TO THE GAUGE CLUSTER LENSE. THE DOOR HINGES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE HAVE BEEN SWAPPED OUT IN THE PAST FOR SOME GOOD USED ONES, AND BOTH THE DOORS POP RIGHT OPEN WITH EASEAND SHUT LIKE NEW WITH ONE SOLID SOUND AND NOSAGGING. THE HEATER BLOWS STRONG AND THE INSIDE OF THIS TRUCK STAYS DRY WITH NO LEAKS. THIS TRUCK HAS THE FACTORY HOOD LOCK, AND A COOL FEATURE IS THIS TRUCK STILL OPERATES ON THE ORIGINAL ONE KEY SYSTEM FOR THE DOORS, IGNITION, AND UNLOCKS THE HOOD, SHOWING THAT THIS TRUCK NEVER HAD THE TUMBLER REPLACED AND HAS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LOCKING PARTS. TRULY A TIME CAPSULE INTERIOR THAT IS IN GREAT CONDITION FOR A 43-YEAR-OLD TRUCK AND IS VERY COMFORTABLE, CLEAN AND SOLID RIDE.
MECHANICAL-THISOLD HIGHBOYIS 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. THE OWNER SAID THE FACTORY 360 WAS REBUILT IN EARLY 2006 AND HAS LITTLE MILES ON IT. IT HAS NO PAPERWORK TO ACCOMPANY IT, BUT IT IS FAR CLEANER THEN A 43 YEAR OLD MOTOR AND THERE IS PRETTY FRESH 360 WRITING ON THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE BLOCK.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 IS AMAZINGLYTIGHT AND STRAIGHT EVEN ON THE HIGHWAY. POWER BRAKES UP FRONT THAT STOP SMOOTHLY AND STRAIGHT WITH NO PULLING OR ISSUES. ALWAYS FIRES RIGHT UP WITH A WITH A PULL TO THE CHOKE AND 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 AND IT'S A ORIGINAL TRUCK SO HAS SOME DIRT AND GREASE HERE AND THERE, BUT IS NOT A LEAKER. THIS F250 HAS BEEN IN OUR INVENTORY FOR A WHILE BUT NEVER FOR SAL, BUT WE HAVE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED IT AND IT IS NOW TIME TO GO TO IT'S NEW OWNER. IT AT ONE TIME SAT FOR 2 MONTHS IN THE GARAGE WITHOUT BEING TOUCHED AND LEFT NO FLUID PUDDLES AND FIRED RIGHT UP WITH TWO PUMPS OF THE PEDAL. THIS 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.
IT WILL BE SAD TO SEE THIS TRUCK GO BECAUSE I KNOW IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE I COME ACROSS A CANDY RED HIGHBOY IN THIS ORIGINAL CONDITION, SO WE HOPE IT GOES TO A LOVING AND APPRECIATEDHOME!
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 and If 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
