Post by fordzilla »

hey im from newfoundland, canada. i found a '68 ford truck that i plan on bringing home soon. i havent even looked at it yet, but i can get a very very good deal on it so i dont see what to loose. i spend alot of time picking at trucks. i have a 79 bronco, a few bronco2s and rangers, and cant wait to get into the bumpside. i want to paint it red and put on some 16s with some 275/50s in the back or something similar. might drop the front an inch or 2. ill post pics when i go to look at her/bring it home

Hello from So Cal (Southern California). There are a million of this era F-body on the road still. It was over-built and will last forever. You can share almost any part you need from 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72 Ford F150, F250, F350. Certain F450, F500 and F600 parts will fit as well. Although you should double check before just assuming it will fit.

:wel: from Phelan, SoCal. If you've had Dents & "Little" Rangers you're now in for a treat with your Bump. Tougher, Simplier, Easier to work on (Watch out for that damned hood latch... it'll get ya).

Other than a '40 and/or '41 Ford Pickup, I think Bumps are the Best Lookin' Trucks Ford ever built.
1970, 2WD, F-250, C/S, Dual Tanks, 390 FE (of course), C6, Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Dana 60 3.73, Sky View Blue, Ranger XLT

1970, 2WD, F-250, C/S, A/C, Dual Tanks, 390 FE (again, of course), C6, Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Dana 60 3.73, Wimbledon White & Sky View Blue, Ranger (almost twin brothers!)
