bullnose 1/2 ton

local to me- tempting. Ive not drove a 300 in years, creeper 1st 4 speed. would certainly pull (and stop) a trailer better than either escape. probably a 3.55 rear gear, ford liked that ratio a lot in 1/2 ton/broncos of that era, with a creeper 1st it would be liveable & still be reasonable on fuel when empty.

Looks pretty clean underneath for something that old in Ohio. Looks about like my truck and AFAIK it's only been north of Kentucky once.

With some rustproofing, it'll haul the next half dozen Escapes to the junkyard. LOL

Thats a bricknose lol.

I seen it...and thought about it. I had an 83 with that drivetrain combo. Bulletproof as hell and that low reverse is great for backing up trailers,....the low 1st was a great clutch saver with a load too.

I towed some pretty heavy shit with mine and getting moving was never an issue....stopping could be lol

Benefits of manual hub 4x4. I can go 2wd low for that.
