Barn Find

[Southern Elk]

This is my great grandfather’s old truck. It was parked about 20 years ago. I’m a Chevy guy, but I’d love to get this Ford running again.

It should get a little TLC i think. And the take it on a hunt.

Or just a ride through the old hay fields.

Not a Ford fan.
But the old ones were in a class of their own.
Very cool.
For ANY kind of play vehicle, or restored project....I would take an old Ford hands down.
Show us pics when you are done.

That old barn is just as cool as the truck. Love stuff like that. Thanks for sharing.

An old truck + memories is awesome

Old Fords are awesome. Especially with memories. I hope you get it running.

OK, wondering what motor it has in it. My first vehicle was a ‘72 F250 4x4, 300 straight 6 and a 4 speed. Thing was a tank.

Oofta i wish I could find something like that. I will have one someday old late 60s and early 70s pickups are in a class of their own.

Growing up on the farm we had a 68 F250. Two wheel drive. 4 speed. But dad changed out the motor to a 390. I could take everybody in a drag race for 1/8 mile, then I ran out of rear end gear. Fun truck to drive.

The grille resembles my 77 Ford F350 4wd with 351 Windsor 4 speed. I bought it almost new in 78 and it still runs well (starts in cold when others won't) and operates as a great wood hauler. Once teenage kids and grandkids can drive that four-on-the-floor double-clutching tank ... they can drive anything!

Very cool! I have a coworker who has one like yours except it’s an F250. Glad you were able to hang onto it all these years.

Here I thought you found a barn

I hope to go see it when I visit for Christmas. I will report back.

That's a 1972 model!

Very cool! Would love to find one just like that and have it be my girls' first truck they could drive to school.

If you put a gun rack and 12 gauge hole in the passenger side pillar, I'd swear you have my HS friend's truck! Those things rock!
