    FS in Delaware-- 1984 F-250 6.9L Regular Cab Long Box

    Thank you, I appreciate it. I have tried to keep her nice. I am quite proud of her, although there is always room for improvement. Definitely do not want to scrap it, I would sell my wife's car to keep this. haha I hope someone does the same if it sells.
