MrMajestyk is in the house !

Post by MrMajestyk »

First of all I'd like to thank the forum for all of the insight and help :thup:

I came across this 1970 F-250 through an estate sale 8)
as you can see it's a work in progress the 360 sounds great with no leaks as well as the granny 4spd & rear end.
It was built in San Jose and to the best of anyone knowledge it's whole life has been spent in the desert of Arizona.

Nope, that was a yellow 1968.

Thanks for all of the warm welcomes 8)

With the landscape the truck was in for some reason out of the blue that classic movie
popped into my head :lol:

Sadly Charles is no longer with us as I did admire his work very much, I was able
to find a VHS copy of Mr. Majestyk on line and should have it for the weekend.

Excellent flick, especially when he launches the truck into the melon field. :thup:

My '69 F250CS came from Arizona, as well! Not much rust, and I don't drive it in the winter to help keep it that way! (Lousy salt solution!)
Nice truck! Enjoy it!
