There are times when you just NEED a pickup truck. Some large items just won't fit, or are too filthy to put in a Saab. So my dad's old pickup of '80s vintage has been the family share truck since his passing. But it sits for months and doesnt get much use, therefore things are breaking or needing replacement and it's become a bit troublesome. I started shopping mid sized trucks from the '90s and was uninspired, but couldn't help but have a strong desire to own and old,unrestored but solid F-100 or 250 from the 60s after some popped up in the search. No show queen, a real work truck to maintain but not make pretty. They seem to be able to be had for around 3k-5k range. Super simple to work on, heck anything that you can actually see clear through to the ground when you open the hood is a big plus. Anyone have such animal and have any advice ?
