Wanted: 1965 F250 Brush Guard (Story inside)

Post by Titus »

Howdy all,
I hope everyones 2019 was better than mine. As the two year (wow) mark passes on me purchasing my 65 F250, I'm getting ready to start finding parts and pieces.

Steve & I always talked about a brush guard for his 65, locally a scrapper named JR had one, it's long gone.

I have a friend traveling to Dallas TX for thanksgiving, he has room to pick it up from Rhode Island to Texas. I figured I'd start scouting for the brush guard now in hopes of finding someone who has one and who'd be willing to sell it to finalize a memory, and be a part of a build that every time I look at my truck, I'll be sure to thank you for the rest of my life.

Please let me know. Thank you

He says that's 2+ hours from where he is going one way.

Wow, I could use those mirrors, hood, guard, and I'm sure a bunch else.

This gives me hope.

For unselfish reasons I am willing to split the bill and take the truck itself.

Is that a full set of 6 hand hole, 6 lug NON split rims. The big opening fenders and apron look decent too. :wink:


Or there is this for $250

I'm thankful, but he said it's too far. He's headed down now & his brother decided to take his family too. So they have some room.

It's that time of year, they are headed down again. If anyone has any leads, it's much appreciated.
