Built in San Jose, California for "altitude" and shipped to Phil Long Ford in Colorado Springs. According to Ford Motor Co., power steering box is "high altitude" and the carburetor is "high altitude". Carburetor professionally rebuilt with altitude compensator chamber on back of the carburetor (stock).
Starts great, runs, drives and stops great for a 40 year old truck. I drive it daily and run a lot of errands locally and a few highway trips.
Tires are good, no spare. Cracked Windshield on passenger side. Cracked dashboard but in good condition, interior overall incredible and original. Original steering wheel is cracked, horn doesn't work and again not sure about the cruise control. Very very slight rust issues on driver side only (in pictures), overall truck in fantastic original condition, only rust issues shown in pictures (wheel well, rear side on bed). Cab corners and rockers are excellent and original. A couple of dings in rear driver side above the rust area, some dings in metal trim and body in same area. Not perfect, but overall extremely excellent and receive compliments everywhere I go.
Radio is original, and there is an aftermarket CD/Radio installed on lower left driver side under dash so nothing cut or modified from original. A couple box speakers are behind the bench seat. The original radio has the front dash speaker connected but doesn't work as the antenna needs to be replaced, just static. The aftermarket radio does not power up, haven't investigated to see what needs to be connected. I'll continue to replace items as I see them or have time, just to continue to improve on the little things. This is a 40-year old truck, so expect normal wear and tear and weathering due to age. I am the 3rd registered owner of this truck since new. 2nd registered owner from same family of original owner.
I've got the reserve set well below average retail for this truck per NADA classic car pricing, and the condition is well above average. Well below market compared to similar vehicle comparisons from multiple sources.
