Older man I used to work with owned it. Bought it brand new. Downsizing as he and his wife got older, his family started a pissin match over who got it. Quite a family dust up the way he tells it. Told them all to KMA and offered it to me. His only request? That I get elk blood in the bed as long as I could. I promised to do my very best and he handed me the keys. Thank you my dear Ole friend, Thank you

Nice!
Looks just like my Ford 4x4 I had in High School. Except mine was a 1976 model in Brown. Brings back lots of good memories!

Its a 1977 3/4 ton XLT w/ a 351 and manual Trans. radio and rims are the only non-stock add ons. 90,000 original miles and had a new motor at 78,000. Its been used but super well maintained. And I'm the Luckiest cat I know right now!!

Nice rig. My first 4x4 was almost the same as your truck. Jade green, 351 4 speed F250, $8000 off the lot. Great in the snow and could pack a load! Not a lot of power, but a really decent real truck. Mine got sold when my wife quit work to stay home with our kids, we never regretted that decision.
