I can't drive my car at all anymore over the winter (which kinda sucks) because any salt would just eat my blower alive. So it looks like I'll have to break out the big guns the fierce, brutal winters that we get in central New Jersey...

And as a bonus, full size oppositelock!

it needs a little body work, it has typical OBS ford rust creeping up. Next year I hope I can get it fixed, it still only has 97,000 miles on it!

old body style, we use that talking about any F series from 96 and older (or 97 F2/350), the last of the true full size trucks.

Has the rear window fallen through the tailgate yet? It will.

nope, still functions completely normal, albeit a little slow. One of my friends just sold his 96 off with 160k+ miles and his rear window never fell

Nope, they were never offered with a manual in the states. She will however be getting a manual conversion along with a 6BT cummins in about a year.

I have a friend working on a 6bt + ZF5 5spd swap in a 76 F250 hi boy, its been in progress for at least 3 years now. He just got it back on the ground for the first time in possibly a year.

Yikes looks like a full frame off dually conversion deal. I'm hoping to complete mine in 3 months or so - will probably take a sabbatical from work. Cool plane graveyard in the background.

yep its basically a frame off resto. The truck was originally a 360FE with a NP435 4spd.

Also, his dad owns a business restoring planes to flying condition, they do a lot of soviet and eastern european jets.
