i'm goin back out today. i was going to get a list and start removign parts. i got the bumpside arm rest off yesterday. and i had started on the hood scoop but ran out of time. so far i have 2 open messages 3 pm's and one phone call all abotu the hood scoop. i have to get it off first. what year would you call this truck? that bed is so long it is unreal.

By the hood emblem It looks like a 68 or 69.

i wondered about those hood emblems. i stripped alot of the truck today and took some pictures. here are the extra pictures i took. the headliner isnt torn up it is dirty. i thought about getting those air horns for myself. that might be cool. oh and check out the speaker hole in the dash. that looks very professionally done or maybe a factory deal. but i have read the factory never did those so i don't know.

and what size botls are those that hold the arm rest on. i tried a 3.8 socket and it didnt seem to fit over the head. i couldn't get a 7/16 into the arm rest.

I'd like to get that speedo/tach set up from you!

Last year of the classic styling era (1969) it was replaced by the boring boxy looking lousiville in 1970. Must be a 8000, never was a 3000, which means it probably has a diesel engine. Does it have a bench seats or separate seats?

i sold the cluster already yesterday about 4.

it does have a cat in it i think. i saw yellow anyway. i has two seats one is a air ride seat. pretty cool. i thought about it but i dont know where i would put it

i saw this truck today. quite a shame it was rolled into a box trailer and crushed the left front of the truck.
the engine looks like an 1180? i can't remember, but it's a v8 cat for sure. it has a 5x2 transmission(s).
michelle, that head liner looked like it was complete and in good shape.
it does have two separate seats. the drivers being an air ride, but i think the brackets will work with mustang buckets. fordman is going back for them i think. they looked similar to what jim is selling for the bumpside trucks.

you are probably right michelle. there was a lever on the side that seemed to work like a ratchet. i didn't look too closely at it.
i am going to have to convince him to pull the headliner. he does this to make money, so i will have to talk him into getting it without really having a buyer lined up.
i really want the "ford" plate that goes across the top of the grille for a decoration in my basement. i didn't have the tools to get it taken off today.

if i go after that air horn and hood lights the headliner will have to come down i think. i really don't have a place to store it though. and it is a F8000. i looked at the emblems wrong oops. that cat motor was a 1160 re manufactured i think it said above the sticker. i told chris we should drop that in one of our trucks. lol i'll get the front ford bar for you. and i Will look at that seat again. i also say that teardrop looking lever on the side of the seat. it jambed me in the behind once or twice while we were removing rubber from the windshield to get that out. i hope it road home ok.

oh and those seat brackets to me didnt look like the bumpside seat bucket brackets to me. they looked more like the older style like you were saying. they arent angled back really. i would have liked to have drove a truck like this. i think its really cool just sitting in it.

if you can sell it do it. i will try to get it out without damging it. i'm pretty sure i can do that. i'm not sure where to store it until then. maybe in another truck out there.

Everyone should keep their eyes on the extra heavy duty models for great parts. When Ford raised the roof line on the F 800 and up, they also raised the standard bench seats with higher brackets for more leg room.

When you remove the headliner and your carrying it outside, be sure its not a windy day...those cardboard headliners like to rip easily... It happened to me once...not cool.
