1972 F100 Custom

Post by Samthebikerman1 »

Saw this truck down the road from my house. Been there for years. maybe about 12. It wasn't for sale but i knocked on the door and kept getting relatives and finally after about 6 different tries i got the owner and we settled on $ 300. It is in pretty nice condition. 3 spd column.

But i want to see what you guys think. Also, i have never seen another f100 with this exact color. looks original, is it?

:wel: from Georgia! For 300 I'd jump on it. Looks like faded boxwood green?

:wel: from SoCal and :yt: ... Old faded Boxwood Green was my thoughts too. Your best bet is to look under the dash pad if it is still in the truck. That is like a time capsule and the original color should be under there completely unfaded if the pad was not taken off.
