Hi all- I am glad that I found this forum, and look forward to being a part of it.
I recently acquired a 1985 F150 shortbed 4X4 auto with the 351 HO motor 76,000 miles. The body is straight with no rust, just patina paint.
The other is an 87 shortbed 4X4 auto 5.0. Body is also straight rust free with good white paint.
It was said to run well, but needed a new rear fuel tank, pumps, etc. , as it set for a good while. Mice also chewed up some wiring pretty good. I am in the process of installing, and should know if she runs by end of week.
