1972 F-250 HiBoy 4x4 for sale - asking $[u]3500[/u] OBO - new price $2000

Okay, I hate to see her go, but her she is. I bought this gem from the original owner back in the mid 90's. She's a 1972 XLT Ranger 4x4 with a 390 (not original) backed up by a new-process 3spd with compound low and a posi dana 60 rear. In the last couple years I put a new holley 2bbl carb on it and it runs great. I also put electronic ignition (duraspark) in it which I retrofitted from a '76 ford product (I think). It burns very little if any oil but leaks a small puddle if left sitting for several months. It has 4 gas tanks although I pretty much only use the 20gal tank behind the seat. It's very reliable and I'd drive it every day to work, but with the price of gas as it is, it would cost me a fortune. So I generally drive it only every few weeks (or less) to pick up a load of lumber or other building materals. It is showing some wear all around and a little rust popping through in a few places, but for the most part it is very solid. Judging by the condition and what other similar trucks are going for on craig's list, I think $3500 is very reasonable, but would be willing to work on the price for a BOSS compadre!

Your tugging at my heart strings!
I will let a buddy know about this GEM, I think it needs to go to a good home.

What a beauty. The woodgrain touches in the interior bring a touch of class. If I didn't already have a '71...

Yep....it definitely deserves a good home. It's been a good friend for a long time. It's never left me stranded....except for when the fuel pump went out a couple years ago....I replaced it on the side of the road and drove away!

Stop by my house anytime.....I live just off 169 past the golf course.....TheBOSS said you're out in black diamond - you probably dive by daily!

WE COULD SWAP BIG ORANGE ONTO THAT FRAME IN A WEEKEND!!!!

Yup, but we all know it will never happen because we can't even get exhaust put on the RanchDog.

im free tomorrow...bring the bonchero over and we will install the exhaust....

I'll drive it over. Have the trailer ready the the f150 gassed up and ready to pick me up.

I'll just sell the phone outright and pay to have the exhaust done.

your in the right topic!!!!

word

How come all this dribble about someone else's exhaust ends up on MY classified add???!!!@$#%&

Any prospective buyer is gonna think we're all a bunch of freaks!!

L-Beast - leave your social clothes at home and drop by for a beer out the keg!

That's a nice truck F-Nuts. I'm sure you'll get it sold quick on the list.

new price of $2000 obo for a BOSS member......putting it on CL for $2500.

If you need some piant I have a new can of ford blue I was going to use on the Mercury. You could clean up the vaulve covers and air filter housing. It will give you something to do while drinking beer. It will make a 1972 look like a 1973

Sweet D1....I think I'll pass since I like the looks of 72's better than 73's :-)

Plus that would require work that I could put against the Hudson :-)

Who knows...I might just end up taking this poor old girl to the crusher

I'll take you to the crusher if you do that. That truck is sweet and deserves a good home.

sounds like another successful transaction on the ol' forum.....good job FBF....and under
budget too!

I second that! No way would you take a working rig to the crusher. I'd take it for free before I let you do that.

I am offering to show up at your place and drink some beer, talk you into giving me the title to the the truck. I will then drive the truck to the crusher for you. A title is all they want any way right? If your intersted hit me back. hahaha. No but really good luck with the sale.

my offer=&500.00

Angry's offer 501.00

501.01......POW!!!!!
