Because I don't have enough to do...
Picked up a 1975 Highboy last week from a guy at work that I could not pass up on. I have a few things to due on it but nothing like Bronco. I will need a passenger floor pan, driver side a a few dents and the driver side bed has a hole over the wheel well. Imay just try and find a bed that is in better shape. It has a 390 in it and came with a bunchh of new parts still in there box's. For $900.00 I got a good truck, 357 revolver and a bunch of new parts, I think I made out....

Sounds good thanks
Been looking at them from time to time and we always had them in the family.
I didn't realize my uncle had My fathers old truck that I learned to drive in but he sent me a picture of it. Found out that my grandpa bought it new, sold it to great grandpa who then sold it to my Dad and he then sold it to my uncle..

That's a beautiful hiboy. I love those old school original paint jobs.
I see 8 lug slots pop up every now and again. Want me to keep my eyes open for you?
