1975 CREW CAB STRAIT SHORT BED WITH ORIGINAL PAINT

1975 Ford F-250 CUSTOM Description

I AM SELLING MY FRIEND'S TRUCK. HE HAS LOST INTEREST IN THIS PROJECT. THIS IS A VERY STRAIT AND ORIGINAL 1975 FORD F250 CUSTOM CREW CAB 4 DOOR TRUCK. MOST OF THESE WERE WORKED TO DEATH, ABUSED AND MISTREATED. THIS ONE WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO ESCAPE THAT FATE WITH ONLY MINOR DAMAGE AND MODIFCATION. STILL HAS MOST OF ITS ORGINAL PAINT. INTERIOR HAD THICK BURLAP SEAT COVERS AND REMAINED PROTECTED. TRUCK WAS NEVER SMOKED IN (ASH TRAY CLEAN AND NO STAINS ON HEADLINER). DON'T THINK THE SUNVISORS WERE EVER USED. FACTORY IN DASH A/C, P/S, AND D/B. GREAT TEXTURE ON THE MOSTLY UNCRACKED BLACK DOOR PANELS.
