1977 Ford F-250 Custom 4x4 History of the truck... This truck has spent its life in the dry (No Salt) climate of Eastern Oregon and has only had 2 owners with the second owner (Larry) buying it from a family friend in 1979. Larry always took great care of the truck and it shows. He would put the truck to work bringing supplies to his family cabin for many years and helping friends bring back their prized Elk from hunting camp. Larry wanted me to emphasize that he never took the truck off the main road as this truck was his most treasured rig in his possession. This high boy was always kept in his shop and was regularly serviced by a local mechanic shop and Les Schwab tire service (we have receipts to show it). Mechanical And Physical Condition.. A true high boy was only produced up until half way through 1977 and this trucks is one of the last true high boys.One of the most unique things about 1977 was that it is the only year that the half a year produced high boy had a 351M V8 or 400 v8 was offered in the high boy platform. The truck runs and drives great with no smoking or knocking of any kind. It has the original 351M and said to be 70k original miles on the truck and boy does it sure run and drive like a low mileage well maintained truck. Transmission is a NP435 4-speed manual transmission and it shifts crisp, it has no slop at all and goes into and stays in every gear as it should. Also the clutch feels great and operates as it should. Four wheel drive works excellent and as the high boys are designed, it will go anywhere. What enables this highboy to go anywhere is the NP 205 transfer case and a big knuckle disk brake front axle along with some Brand New Maxxis Bighorn M/T tires that handle great ON and OFF-ROAD. Cosmetically the truck wears its original Dark Nectarine Metallic and Indio Tan Paint that as seen in pictures has a nice shine. Interior is in nice clean condition with a reupholstered seat and new carpet kit installed to help it keep that clean comfortable feel. The dash has no cracks and all gauges and lights work along with all glass in great condition. It is still wearing the original door panels which have a few flaws, we are able include some reproduction ones or you could send these original ones off for restoration. This truck is a real deal numbers matching high boys so don't let the opportunity to own one of these pass you by!
