Uni's are addicting, I didn't like them when I was younger, now they're my favorite. I was always partial to a 66' (hence my username) Then Eunice came along...I'm attracted to the swb, but if you want to see a sweeeet longbed, check out Mike's (jkimbrel65's) 62' lwb.

Mike's is a sweet one to be sure, and the F-250's for some reason seem better proportioned with their bigger wheels too.

I don't hate longbed unis, I just prefer shorties. Shorties look good in the 64-66's too and I prefer them in the 67-79's and 97-04's as well. I have my eye on a shorty '99 right now that I see every day on my way to work.
Let's hope common sense prevails. :roll: LOL
It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

I agree with Iceman. I sure would love to have a long F-250 unibody. I love the bigger trucks, even though all of mine are 1/2 tons. One day I hope to get one and restore one all stock down to the hubcaps.

I freely admit that my preference for the longbed uni may, in fact, stem from a psychological defense mechanism, deeply rooted in my subconscious, that protects my psyche from the combined stresses of buyer's remorse and shortbed envy.
