Dear ,
Newbie Subscriber? Welcome!
Seasoned Veteran? Happy Summer if you're north of the Equator!
I've got lots going on and a few balls in the air right now. That's why I didn't reach out to you last week. I've also discovered over the years you can get busy too during the summer months.
Reading a
newsletter might be a low priority for you!
Crazy Request 1974 F-100 Ford Truck
I'm starting to look for something I've wanted for a few years and you might be able to help. Within the next year, or possibly sooner, I'd like to buy an old pickup truck.
It's not
just any truck. I'd love to find my original pickup truck that I bought new in 1974. I don't expect to find my exact truck as the odds are it's been recycled and could be a bunch of soup cans, a small I-beam, or several refrigerators for all I know.
I'm well aware of all the websites and services that have old cars and trucks for sale.
I'm looking for you to spot what I
need perhaps in your neighborhood or town. You may know someone who's got the truck I want in their garage, driveway, barn, or ?
I'm looking for a 1974 Ford F-100 with a three-speed manual transmission on the steering wheel column. It would be ideal if it came with the 240 cubic-inch straight six engine too.
This is the crazy color I had. Mine had white racing stripes that went up and over
the wheel wells running front to back. I don't need the truck to be orange! I'm not married to that color at all.
The one you just looked at won't do because it's an automatic and has the giant V8 engine. I'd compromise on the smaller V8, but I MUST HAVE the 3 on the tree baby!
Maybe you know someone who's got this rare truck that's not yet ready for the blast
furnace. Let me know.
