STORY: This truck was bought brand new at Benny Hainen Ford located in Tipton, Mo and the original owner used it on the farm.  At that time, the original colors were two- tone blue and white.  In 1982, my father became the second owner after purchasing it to drive back and forth to work until 1987, when the truck was no longer affordable to drive as he had switched jobs and commuted from California to Jefferson City.  The truck was then handed down to my grandfather who at this point had retired, where he used it gently on the farm and short trips until his passing in 1998.  At that point, the truck was given to me and needed a lot of work, lots of rust and miles on the motor at this point.  In 2001, my father and I rebuilt another 351M motor to put in and had I the truck repainted to the color that it is today.
