My Grandpa's Old Trucks

[mn_smokeater]

there out back in the grass where i grew up is a few pieces of American truck history all 3 of these can be mine...
30's DRW Chevy 1 ton truck last on the road in 1960 still has the tranny and the Engine in it it has 60,000 on it

heres the two that need less work the chevy needs a engine the ford just needs to be run.

1964 Chevy C20

Heres the one that needs less work 1970-74 F100 4WD no clue on engine as its swapped.

when i get money....

And it's even a RANGER!!!! Too cool!

 

[MountainMike]

I'm not biased but I've got to say the Ford. It looks to be in the best shape out of all of them and needing the least amount of work.

 

['95 ranger]

that older chebby would make an awesome rat rod!!!!

 

[The purple one]

60,000 Miles on that chevy It must have been rebuilt one time. Back then you were lucky to get 30,000 out of a motor before it was blowing oil and just about shot.

im pretty sure that one is no newer than a 73,, shes a bump side not the dent side, dent side started in 73 so shes older than that. deffinetly do that truck when you get the chance!

i say all three at least get the chevy out and sell it to someone who will restore it, i would do the ch...che.....y...(1964)cant say it and the ford over

Yeah man, I love that old Ford.


If you don't want it ring me up, I'll take it.

 

[Ranger Dave (B25)]

It's a 71 or 72. Look at the VIN plate to be sure.

 

[Boggin]

yes, i meant its not a 73 or newer

 

[Ranger Sport Honduras]

what u waiting to get that ford!

I like the 30s truck. I'd be driving that thing if I had it--and it wouldn't look much better than it does now. Just spray it with WD40 every time I walked by.

already got the plans together for all three.the ford goes full stock resto,60's chev dropped resto-rod,and the old chevy goes a couple of steps above a rat rod-keep it a dually heavy duty,but drop it to the weeds,channel the body over the frame,nice paint,but not too nice.....and a done out inline six for power.either a flat deck or a box made to look proper for the era,but with fenders for the duallys.

I would fix both the newer Chevy and Ford, they are both as straight as a pin (from the sides shown anyway)

Looks like someone got a little creative with the Chevy and tried to make a sprayer...

Family trucks are cool, here is my grandfather's 1970 Dodge D200 he bought new. 318 4spd bare bones 3/4 ton, even radio delete. All it needed was a brake job and tires. The dent in the door is thanks to my dad's Roadrunner back in the day... there is a story behind just about every dent on these things.
