new guy from north Platte Ne edit(now With Pictures)
new here ford site buy searching for info on my 1967 f250. It sure is a strange beast no chrome except for the front grille and i think maybe around the cab, Not sure it is setting out at my fathers.
It has a 352 and the trans has the coolant go back to it instead of the tranny fluid going to the radiator.
Only 2 spots of rust from my investigation both on the front fenders.
Also came with factory installed a/c.
This will be my next project after i finish my 70 Galaxie and get my wife 61 volkswagon beetle started and running
Here is a link to my picture gallery hopefully it works http://s169.photobucket.com/albums/u223 ... rd%20f250/
Thanks to all who acually take the time to read this
