I went and looked at your profile page. Man that truck looked almost pristine before you started on it. Where did you ever find one that nice? Especially in 4wd. Frame and motor are looking good. I wish my 65 had started out that nice.

I've owned this truck since 1985. I fixed it up and painted it in 1986 and drove it for years as my daily driver and all over the backcountry and deserts of Idaho. I retired a couple years ago and decided it was time to restore it right!

My 65 is a 4wd out of St Maries Idaho. When I cleaned it I think I removed about 50lbs of good Idaho top soil from the frame and running gear. And just about everywhere else. I still have under the cab to do. If you dont mind saying where are you located in Idaho.

Edit.... On second thought Im glad it wasnt that nice I never would have been able to pick it up for $300.

very nice.
27 years is a long time to own a truck.

i have had my 66 f250 4x4 almost 12 years now. far from original (bought it wrecked and used a 63 f250 2wd cab/bed and the y block on the 4x4 frame) and its needing some TLC which it will be getting over the summer. its a truck and used as one so no super spendy paint, just things that keep it in good running condition.
will be going to a 300 6 and changing the "wrongbed" to a separate uni bed.

Nice area we usually stop and spend the night there when we drive through on the way to Vegas. We usually come down through Lewiston and follow along the salmon river very beautiful country just north of you.
