    I guess I've owned at least 1 of most generations through the 10th. Many of my heavier duty f series were cusp generations or lagged behind 1 generation. The 1973 f700 I had was actually a 5th gen cab and hood the 1988 F450 was a 7th gen.cab fenders and hood, the 1995 B7700 school bus has the 8th gen.1988 cowl firewall and dash.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done
    When I have to paint I use KBS products

    Not quite, I generally have owned as many as 4 or 5 running F series at a time and sometimes double that for parts vehicles. If you are going to own Fords you have to have parts vehicles or a lot of baling wire. The good thing is many parts will crossover though several generations. The bad thing is the newer they get the more screwed up they become.

    we HAVE A 1959 f100 disassembled to the last bolt stored in a 20 ft shipping container, waiting for me to have time to restore it. !959 was the first year Ford offered factory 4wd this one according to the serial number it was made during the first run Don't know how many were made before it was, but it is possibly the oldest one known to still exist. It was bought new by the guy who owns it remembers when his dad bought it new.

    Added note this truck will not get restored until after I have my 49 Chevy done and my 44 Mack EQ and possibly my 46 1 1/2 ton Army truck
