started out life as a 72 f250 4x4. about 11 years ago.

after the engine blew up, traded bodys to the 70. ran a couple engines, then bought a crate 390 for it.was my wifes daily driver for several years until she bought a 85 crewcab. we sold it for $1000, then bought it back for $250 a few months later when the kid lost his license.
my wife gave it to me to do whatever with when she bought her slick.

i bought an 69 f350 ford wrecker, put the bed and dually rear end in and the 65 f350 cab on.the only original parts left from the 72 are the front axle and column/gearbox.
Image

most of the $ is in the engine and wrecker.
