Is there a site like this for old Ford trucks also.

I ask this because besides the two 1960 Chevy trucks. I aquired a 1950 Ford Pickup complete with Flathead V-8 for $300.00 from another party.

I guess $300.00 is my lucky number for buying complete old trucks.

I have always been a Bow-Tie man, but I couldn't resist the Flathead V-8.

LOL that's asking for it!
No, other brands don't have a stovebolt website, that's why we call them other brands.
A good price though
I let you buy my next C H E V R O L E T or G M C truck

The Stovebolt Page is the best community of old truck owners i've been able to find, especially when you cosider the broad range of model years discussed.

I've not been able to find a Ford or Dodge forum that covers as much ground and has as active a community.


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.

The inliners are our buddies... our dear editors are cool about posting other sites if they got the info...

ford truck enthusiasts - 1948 to current Ford trucks:

http://www.ford-trucks.com/

It take a little exploring and 'clicking around' to get the feel of it, but they have good folks over there.

here are links to a few other ford truck pages:

Anytime you can get a truck for $300, take it--no matter what brand it is!

Congrats!!!

Back when I was a truck driver they had a '58 F-600. I really liked that truck, and if I were willing to own a Ford a '58 F-100 is a probable choice. But don't hold your breath, I don't have enough GM trucks yet.

I bet you could get a good PRICE for that FQRD and then you can buy a (new) OLD BOLT.
Dont get me wrong I dont hate FQRDS some of my best friends hate I mean own FQRDS. I even own a "54" plymouth but by the grace of GOD it is "Shacking up" with a Stovebolt.

Folks wouldn't realize how good Stovebolts are if it weren't for Fords...LOL...


There aren't that many post Model-A blue-ovals that I get excited over...the exceptions are the '48-'52 trucks and the '65-'66 trucks.

Grandad bought a used '65 Ford F-100 8-ft fleetside when he reitred my '54 Chevy, around 1973. The Ford was a stripper, in the FoMoCo equivalent to "juniper green", painted hub-caps, painted bumpers (white); 240 cid six ,three-speed, heater, electric wipers (single-speed).

Mom inherited it...needs a resto, but it was a decent truck. Its biggest flaw was/is cab cancer.

Good luck with your F-truck, 1960 !
