1985 Ford F-150 - 67K Original Miles - Recent Upgrades - 302 V8 - $7,000

Condition

Honest 40-year-old patina with small character dents that prove it lived. Frame and bed are rock-solid; localized surface rust at cab corners/rockers (typical for age, not structural). Excellent foundation for a Restomod, modern drivetrain swap, or keep it classic.
