So I sold my 2500 HD a few months back and realized that going to Home Depot just isn't the same in a car. Wife wasn't a fan of a mini truck or a slammed out 90s dually so I had to go a little further back.
Found this bad boy at the Pomona swap meet yesterday. Shook on it and finalized the deal today.
One owner, completely original 1965 Ford 250 with a 352 and 4 on the floor. 112k original miles.
Even the interior was in fantastic condition as it had a seat cover on it it's entire life while staying in a garage.
Going to dig driving to and from the hardware store in this bad boy.

Very nice ride and you'll never be singled out as one who is following the crowd.

Do you plan on doing anything to it or leave it as is?

The fact that it's all original will dictate what is done if anything. From a maintenance standpoint, just need to rebuild the master cylinder and that's about it. The originality of it will prevent me from going way overboard with engine swaps and the other things I had in my mind when I was looking for a 65 Chevy project. Will probably change the front to disc brakes for safety reasons but other than that.....nothing much.
