1970 Ford F250 Camper Special Ranger XLT 2WD
Clean title in my name.
California/Arizona truck until I drove it to Idaho a year ago.
7300 miles on it since drivetrain completion. Original mileage unknown.
Over $40,000 invested. $28,000 in parts (receipts included)
I have 100 photos of the truck, so let me know if there is something you want to see.
With Buy-it-now I will deliver to Portland, Eugene, Bend, or Orange County. Maybe a few other areas in the west. Contact me to discuss.

The only rust is the typical drivers side rear cab corner from water/fuel leaking in at the filler. Patch panels are readily available.
The cab fuel filler hole on the cab needs patched.
The hood came off another truck that had hood pins. The two holes need patched.

Between the wing windows, kick panel vents and rear slider, you get excellent warm weather ventilation that is not loud or buffeting.

Summary:
Nearly every moving part on this truck has been replaced or rebuilt. All the heavy lifting has been done. The engine, drivetrain, steering, brakes and suspension are all rebuilt and upgraded. The fuel injection has crisp throttle response and maximizes fuel mileage. You get all the classic look and feel, but with some added modern functionality. Cruises down the highway with the overdrive. Fly in and drive it home. Have some fun!
