Pickin' up a new FORD! - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Just thought I would share my good fortune with you all. Tomorrow I will be putting a hold on a new truck. Will probably be left as-is for now. If/when the 460 goes i will be seriousely considering a cummins swap... until then, as is.

1988 F350 CC. 460/c6 aka "gas hog" for the nice price of $3000

Good lookin' rig.

I like it but are you going to keep the truck whole and not just strip the axles like a lot of people do?

Idaho Hillbilly · 12-29-2010, 09:31 AM

No this truck will not be stripped. Will be the wood hauler/tow rig/everything a truck should do rig that's got enough room to haul the whole family around.

Nice score. Bug shield has to go and maybe the running boards, but it looks like a solid truck.

Very nice looking rig. Definitely ditch the running boards, they just get hung up on shit, especially with a truck that long.
