hello from ohio
hello,
my name is tommy. i am a college student at kent state in ohio. yes, that kent state. i have had a love affair with the 67-70 ford pickups since i was 2 years old. unfortunately i have never owned one. i thought that maybe this site might lead me to one. i am still amazed that there is a site dedicated to the best model year trucks ford has ever made, and that it took me so long to find it.
here is what i am looking for, if anyone spots one:
67-72 f100-250 (67 preferred)
anything with a manual transmission on the floor
long bed
decent running condition, i know that rust is inevitable
under $1000 shipped to ohio
that is probably next to impossible, but maybe i'll get lucky

re: hello from ohio
thanks for the welcome guys,
i have looked around the website, but haven't gone too far back into old for sale notices. i have checked local papers like truck trader, but most of the ones in ohio are not running or rust buckets. the only one i have found that was worth anything is a 70 f250 with a bad paint job but otherwise mint from arizona, but the guy wanted 5k for it, which i don't have. i'll keep my eyes peeled tho.
