1969 f-250 camper special ranger

Post by berrys250 »

Hello to all,
New to this message board and I want to thank you for this site. Just moved from Michigan (home of the rusted trucks) to Utah (Rust free). Been here 2 weeks and I have purchased 2 trucks. 1969 Ford F-250 Ranger Camper Special with 390 2WD manual trans and a 1977 F-150 4x4 manual w351m. Need all the help and advise I can get. Both are solid and runners, question is which should I restore first?
Thanks.
p.s. anyone know how many F-250 Rangers camper specials with t-18 and 390s were built in 69?

:hi: welcome to the site!
If both trucks are running usable, I would start on the 69 2wd as winter is comming and you could use the 4x4 if needed through the winter :thup:

Also, we are picture hounds! :lol:

If it Looks good and Works good then it's ok by me. Everything has its issues from time to time...

This is one place I found while looking for info on my NP435, but don't know how their prices compare to other places... Novak. You will get better / more answers in the "Drivetrain" forum :wink: post this question in there.
