My Father has the identical truck, only an ext cab. 96 I believe and just slightly over a 100,000 km's, if that? He gets asked all the time about selling it but he is not interested even though he doesn't drive it much. (pic below)

4 speed manual or automatic? A friend of mine years ago had the identical looking truck. We use to ride together and one morning he showed up with a very stiff neck and wanted me to drive. It had been years since I had driven a standard but he was adamant I did. Needless to say, with my lack of experience and the stitffness/jerkiness of his clutch, I think he regretted it. :lol:

I restored my old 96 f150 short bed 5.0 4x4 few years back. Completely stripped to the frame tracked down bunch of rust free parts painted it highland green like the 67 bullitt mustang Steve McQueen drove. Sold it after my second kid was born 2yrs ago. I wish I kept it.

Those things were engineered like trash but they looked 100x better than the 97+, which was also engineered like shit 

The next generation were so fucking bad looking . Like a Taurus with a bed . Just bad . That said I had one went thrugh coil packs like candy but in around 190k that and some heater board thing and a trans was it . But with the trans all my trucks I keep over 15ok burn em out . I should be buying 2500s or 3500s but I have to piss enough the way it is

That’s a sweet little truck. I have an employee who wants one so I keep watching. When they come up at a reasonable price they sell quick.

 

I had to start my ok’d girl yesterday to clean up the driveway. She wasn’t happy about it.

New set of tires on the '94 for New Years 2021.  Went with Cooper Evolution M/T  33x12.5R15.

Owned several in that generation:   92 F150 supercab w 351, 95 F250 supercab Power stroke, 94 F450 w 7.3 diesel, 95 F450 power stroke.  Miss that F250, what a beast.

ya it’s crazy how much nice clean ones go for now. I’m hoping to get a mid 90s f350 crew with 460 some time down the road if I have some extra cash for another toy in the future. What is that in one in your pic 78?

I've had 10-12 of the OBS Ford trucks. This green one here I have about $7000 into but you'd never know it.

This truck sold in an online auction for $97000.

 

Amazing what people will pay for originality.

First truck show in a few years due to Covid and family stuff prior.

I drove my F150, wife drove my F100. Today was a "For Fun" show. Tomorrow is competitive judging. Thunder storms over night and into the morning in the forecast for tomorrow so we went today. Not as many attend the Saturday show. The wife took most of these and I'm taking them from Facebook.
