F600 brotruck in indiana

NMNA, someone but this and put a 2 stroke diesel in it....as right now I'm sure its a gallons per mile truck.

what do you put in to the search box to find something like that.......no dont tell me....if the cab is solid on that thing and it runs its pretty cool

Just locally searching ford with $6min $2000max filters by owners

I'm tempted to call the guy and look at it, as its only 10min away, but I'm scared I might like it and be stupid enough to try to drive it to gainsville this fall

if its 10min away you have to go look at it and get some good pics of that beast if it ends up in the scrap pile we should all hang our heads in shame

I think I know him, he has a couple fire trucks and an awesome IH scout hot rod.

Yeah, get pics. It's too far for me to drive there just to see it, but if it's solid, I'd drive there to buy it if nobody else did.

I'll try to get ahold of the guy this evening to take a look sometime in the next few days

Jim is it going to be your new DD i dont think it will fit on your lift in the garage will it, and i really think it may come up short of your 25mpg you were looking for in the DD but you never know

What would something like that get milage wise? 2-4?

i had a 1974 f600 with the 390 and 2 spd rearend that got 12miles to gallon around town and i was hauling 600gal of water and 300 gal of fuel plus hand tools

that's cool.

Damn you cutter.....you weren't supposed to say that tempting me.....

I'd be tempted of towing to fl if it could manage 10 hwy

Damnit I am glad that's a long way away.... holy crap that is cool as E36 M3!

The F700 came with a 5spd in the 70's that will bolt right in. The 2 spd is in the rearend it matters what you plan on hauling but they offered different gearing for it.... the truck i drove fully loaded or empty would do about 70mph uphill or downhill and it seemed to get the same mpg

I left a message with the guy, so let's see if I get a reply.

I am very interested in this, the plow would be great as well, definitely interested in it, place me in the line.

There's this line. It's in a constant state of movement, but it's there. It's a line that if a vehicle crosses it, you must follow. Over this line coolness goes to a level that can no longer be denied. It goes to a level where rational thought by necessity must be ignored. I know you've been there too. This truck is somewhere over that line, my friend...

I completely love it. Too many trucks... Must stop self.... Can't go to bank.... GF will leave me... Electricity will be cut off... Deep breaths.

It's no more extreme than anything else I've had. I would love that two speed for my 1ton ex-wrecker.

We're you able to contact him? I'd really like to know if it's solid or not. Black truck in bad pictures - Hard to tell.

I've left two messages without a reply......Open season on his phone number?

Got a reply just now, says he got rid of it.

Please tell me it was one of us.
